Re: Out of the 2p2ers who make 1 mil in the next 18 months
I think at least half will end up dropping most of it to one or more of:
Not adjusting to changing games
Frivalous spending despite games drying up
Bad investments
Unfortunate run ins with the IRS
Bad luck
Playing above their bankroll
Tilt
Real life emergencies
I think that a fair percentage of the people who join this millionairs club will be marginal players who run really hot. With the increased size of the big games now, $1M is nowhere near as hard to reach by running hot as it was when the biggest game you could find was 10/25 or 25/50 NL.
There is a pretty wide range of personalities of the big winners on these boards. I think you will see an equally wide range of choices and outcomes these people make.
