yes poker is about luck

I heard you also play lots of bj, funny how you left that out of your story

Weird. Funny how you got your facts wrong. I've probably played 2 hours of blackjack in my entire life, and that was 5 years ago when I was 18. Since being a poker player I've played probably 30 hands of bj total. Your tone sucks. If you would have said it in a concerned way it would have been different, but you come off pretty dickish. Get your facts right before you make 'slanderish' comments.

Not normal.. I lost over 2,000 though... And I was a large winner for many many years... This is the 4th person that I know who was a multiple hundreds of thousand dollar winner over more than 500k hands that has experienced losing 1500 or more BB without playing exceptionally poorly

Honestly, the whole 1,000 BB thing is seriously flawed. I am quite sure you didnt play extremely poorly, and I know for absolute fact that I didnt when I managed to lose all my money. I think it is rare, but I would say that it will affect 10-15% of winning players at some point, given a long enough period of play.

Nobody seems to belive this is possible, as a matter of fact, I am pretty sure you chimed in that I must have been playing bad when I lost mine, on a thread a year or so ago.. Also, you ran disgusting at Party for quite some time.. I didnt have that to fall back on
