Bill Gates is known to play $3/$6 pr $4/$8 when in Vegas.

[/ QUOTE ]

I read that too somewhere. By my calculations in the 4/8 game: with a net worth of approximately $50 billion dollars, he has a bankroll of 6.25 billion BB. (Probably enough to cover himself for variance).

[/ QUOTE ]

Oh yes! How long would it take him to lose all of that assuming he never wins another hand ever?

[/ QUOTE ]

It wouldn't be possible. Bill gates is so rich that he could literally spend the rest of his life burning $20 bills every 5 minutes or so, and he'd make so much more than that on investment interest from his net worth that he'd still make money.

if he did this tho, could he overcome his nerdy past and make it on shipithollaballs?

Some guy who played in the big game. The pros all joined together and formed a team to play him HU at ultra high stakes.

Can't remember his name though.

That might have been Andy Beal, but I'm not sure if he plays poker.

Haven't read the thread, but isn't the obvious answer Andy Beal?

Ditka is playing Beal (who the OP established is not a poker player) at the Bellagio right now in $100k/$200k HU HE. Beal wants to keep the sessions short so Ditka is using the extra time to play big PLO games on FullTilt under the name Till_I_collase.
