Three Years in Las Vegas

[PokerPaul]

sorry to ask this, but did you embellish a little bit in your post??

Don't get me wrong, i love to read about these kind of stories and live vicariously through them, since i have a family and kids to care for out east here, so i don't have the option to pick up and leave, but sometimes i do wish i could give it a try for aqn extended period.

Anyways, you mentioned one of your worst sessions in this thread as being -96 big bets for three sessions......

sorry, but if you have been playing professionally in vegas for three years, that should not stand out as one of the "worst" sessions. heck, to lose 100 bigbets in just ONE session is a really bad day, but not something most pros would describe as extrodinary.

For example, 100 big bet loss at 10-20 (my game of choice), is a $2000 hit. Its definitely a very bad day, where the fish caught their draws, and very few of my hands hold up, but it happens, even to me, who is definitely not playing pro hours here. And you are talking about 3 sessions to accumulate that loss....


Either you are very very good, play with marked cards (kidding), or the law of statistical variance has not caught up to you yet.
