I dont think gigabet is busto, but sometimes I suck at predicting these type of things. He's been playing big 10k+ live tourneys, so he could of easy gone busto like the rest of them.

Kind of old, but no one mentioned this. NUTZREALBIG on party poker went from 500k br to 25k br on party poker, as a dropout went back to school and stopped playing poker for a long time.

What games did he play? Even if he was playing 2KNL, that is still a 238 buy in downswing. Hard to imagine how someone could build their roll up to 500K then lose 238 buy ins unless they went on total monkey tilt for a week.

he played party 5k and party 2k alot and played an over aggro sort of donkish style that had HUGE variance. i liked him at my tables.

I am super serious. I have no idea how these guys are playing 300-600 one minute and 5-10 the next. How these guys win millions at tourneys, then are being staked into tourneys the next year cuz they are broke. How these 16-year-old kids make 200k online then go broke. How these 21-year-old kids make 500k online then go broke. I mean, I know. I just can't truly understand. I can absolutely not relate to the complete and utter lack of any sort of money management and complete and utter willingness to go broke. Obviously, I will probably continue to make my living in ways other than gambling at the highest of stakes. I started poker playing 3/6 LHE. I now play much bigger than that. Luckily I have other means of income as well, but if I didn't, I sure would do everything in my power possible to make sure I didn't have to play 3/6 as my main game ever again.
