it is sunday oct 22,i just did something that is so mathmatically hard to do,you wouldnt believe it unless you looked it up,i was playing the silver tournament early in the am on pokerroom,it had 140 players in it,i won the tournamant,so im like yeah i finally won a tournament,so i sign up for the next silver tournament,it is free to get in these so i usually play crazy in the beg and if i get some chips tightin down,well this one had 290 players in it,I WIN IT AGAIN 1st,so while this tournament was going on,there was one more silver that i signed up for,it was the plohl ,there were 215 players in the tournament,i was so hungry from playing the first two that i sat out in the middle of the tournament ,i had about 5k in chips,i went to wendys,got me something to eat,came back and i had around 4300 in chips,i go on to win this tournament also,so thats 3 tournaments ,3 first place wins,140 ,290 ,and 215 players,i have heard of some great accomplishments,like dan harrington making like 3 final tables in a row,or johnny chan winning the main even 2 times ,then coming in second ,but i think the fields were less,maybe someone can mathmatically tell me if this might be one of the top 5 or 10 greates accomplishments mathmatically ever!!!!(and if you want to look it up ,my screen name on pokerroom is sharky21222

Good god I [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] this thread.

My original thought was that it's a top 10 moment in the history of mathematics, but with the trip to Wendy's, it's gotta be like at least top 5.

And when you consider the fact that it was a freeroll and people play like completely donkeys, and Johnny Chan and Dan Harrington played against better competition where you don't get sucked out on as much, it's really impressive.

Definitely a Top 3 accomplishment mathmatically, and maybe Bottom 20 gramatically.

Why so much hate?

ok,you cannot count this,tiger is even money to win these events sometime,i am talking about poker tournaments,the odds of tiger winning 3 tournaments in a row would not even come close to 8 million -1 ,i think it would be more like 40-1

Well dude, if you are a PRO playing with a bunch of noobs in freelols, I would put your odds at about 5 to 1 to win 3 in a row. Not that impressive.
