he isn't busto, I've seen it on TV. I won't name the show, but I know for a fact that Brad Booth bought in for ONE MILLION DOLLARS.

obviously being serious... we all saw him on WPT with over a million in chips, but he lost all of those didn't he? I'm guessing that would help explain why he's busto!

"Where is the money going?" Through the magic of recycling, all the money Benyamine takes out of the big game has gone into the banks of P.A. and Aba. Both are up 1 mil+ this month, with aba up almost 2 mil and benyamine is down 2 mil online.

Also lol ELD is right again. And its worth noting that these guys prob. havent played over 200k hands in their lives. Think about this, at 30 hands an hour, playing 4 hours a day, 300 days a year, it would take 6 years to get in 200k hands. Live players are then prone to think they are teh awesome when in fact they just ran well for the past 5 years

So everything everyone makes in poker is funneled into PA and Aba? Makes perfect sense.

It I had any skills I would make a MS Paint for this... [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

I find it hilarious to think that we onliners can play as many hands online in 4 months as a live pro can play in 5-6 years. And those live pros could lose all those 200k live hand winnings online in the space of a few weeks and wondering wtf hit them.One Mike Matosow springs to mind?

This thread makes me feel good. When I wrote here and got trashed, it surprised me. Sklansky, the owner of the site and a man knowledgable of all things in the poker world makes a realistic, cautionary tale post and gets trashed for not having poor taste and naming names.

Um...wait as second, are you claiming Sklansky doesn't have poor taste? Have you read these forums?

You got praised waaay more than trashed, but you just focus on the negative. Your perspective here is way off too imo, Sklansky's post was awful.
