spacegravy,

that's not the case. everytime someone makes an accomplishment desdia comes in to argue that it's much more impressive to be a winning $5NL player, and that real poker players play cash because SNGs are dumb, or something like that.

No, citanul, you think it's more impressive to be a winning $5NL player. I've never compared the two. Real players and better players do play cash and SNGs are not dumb (I still play them from time to time). I just think labeling someone top 10 in the world playing SNGs when their either hugely negative or barely winning on PS (as opposed to other sites) is lame. I've always felt this way.

I think it's very dumb, those are my thoughts. You have nothing to prove to me, nor do you need my stamp of approval. There are plenty of folks around here to carry your jockstrap; I've never been one of them. BTW, I doubt very seriously you'll get close to getting three Astons and you're gonna damn near pop out your eyeballs just trying to get one. GL though, I'll still think it's a ripoff that's not even worth it.

Let's do a quick lesson in basic mathematics:

Joe = Supernova
Supernova = 3.5 FPP per 1 VPP
Joe has 500,000 VPP this year
500,000 VPP = 1,750,000 VPP

At his current rate, he'll hit Elite by midyear (a little sooner, but we'll keep the math simple).

So by end of June, he'll have 3.5 million fpp.

Then he is elite and gets 5 fpp per 1 vpp, meaning that the same pace would net him 5 million fpp for the second half of the year.

3.5 million plus 5.0 million = 8.5 million = Porcsche + Aston Martin

They might as well named it Bigjoenova instead of elitenova because he's the only one they made it for.

I am currently lobbying stars to create another VIP elite rank called BigjoeNova that takes 2million VPPs a year to achieve.
