$1k/day at MGM 1-2 NL?

P.S.- Now that I think about it, in that two weeks I never saw anyone rack up out of that game for a 1K+ profit.

Then you didn't pay enough attention 'cause folks do that reasonably often--any weekend about 2am or 3am look around at all the NL1/2 tables and you'll often see one or two $1K+ stacks. But it's not a question of whether you can make $1000 in a day--lotsa people do that now and then. It's whether you can AVERAGE that day after day after day. No, you can't. Show me this guy's 1040 showing a $200k income from gambling and his daily records backing up that it came from NL1/2 at MGM and I'll become a believer.

Some kid had like 9k on the table 100max nl at turning stone. He only had been playing for 36 hours I think.

1k per day is quite possible, perhaps even for a few weeks / months if your playing good running well and u win a few HUGE pots to average out the days where u dont make as much.

There are stories about some of the name pros now adays playing back 3-4 yrs ago when poker first started to get big and having 40 + days at the casino showing a profit. Basically never having a loosing day.

He said he makes 1k a day but he didnt say how many days that was over. Its definatly possible though for like a month stright though.

For 4 days at 1/2NL at MGM, I ran well. +720, +692, + 972, -143. I can imagine averaging $1k/week if you are significantly above average. My data is without 1 single river suckout, which signifies how +3sigma I was running.

1k/week is still extremely tough to do without a lot of hours put in. The guy in the first post was claiming 1k/day though.

1K/day is obviously crazy.

However, if it is anything like the 1/2 300max games in AC, I believe someone could make a reasonable amount of money playing that game exlclusively. Reasonable in comparison to what normal people make around the country, not Aba pulling down 700K a month.
