Default Re: is there such a thing as an online tournament poker pro ?

Actually, 225 tournies is a pretty good representative sample size. Bax's total tournies for 1st 5.5 months of 2007 is 569.

Bax is tracking to make $300k pre-taxes from online tournies in 2007. $300K is about the avg starting salary of an options trader on the street. No wonder Strasser is headed in that direction.

Bax made his money in the market long before he made it playing poker. He's also a WSOP bracelet winner and has a total of $1.3 million worth of cashes in live events to accompany his online cashes.

You should really try and get your facts straight before you go posting random nonsense in public. You don't know a thing about Bax or what it's like to be a tournament 'pro'.
