Re: 500k VPP mark reached
 Joey's secret to SNGs is located somewhere in this picture. I'd elaborate, but I fear I have already said too much.

[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] I can make over a million a year stress free [/ QUOTE ] Do you have any insight you'd care to share as to why you're the only person playing SNGs (afaik) that can claim anything remotely close to this right now? [/ QUOTE ] He's the most talented of the people who still want to play sngs. He can play the most volume at the highest levels and has the stomach for the inevitable swings. [/ QUOTE ] Well there are a few things that make me wonder if there's more to it. #1 Joey is the only dude to run 10% at the $500s on party in recent times, which curtains basically insinuated was a fluke. This was looking correct for a while after Party died, then Joey had that insane almost straight-up run. #2 You got a guy like Gramps, who by all accounts is (or was) on an extended cooler. But still I think his opinion is that the upper level games are almost unbeatable excluding rakeback. #3 If jman, raptor, strassa, curtains, newt, or any of the other SNG->cash stars thought they could make $1 mil w/o having to think that much, I think some if not all of them would be back at SNGs. I dunno. It just seems like either joey is the luckiest SOB alive, or has some kind of bead on SNGs that no one else in the world has right now. [/ QUOTE ] FWIW there is absolutely no chance I would ever put in the kind of hours necessary to make 1 mil per year at SnGs, even if I had the skill to do so. I play 2-2.5 hours per day on average and strongly wish to keep it that way. In any case bigjoes results seem pretty much in line for what I'd guess the absolute best SnG player could earn at the highest levels, if he happens to be the best. My post was claiming that a longterm ROI of 10% was not possible, and I believe that its very clear that given the state of the games that it's not possible. 6% is very very good (which is what SS has bigjoe at over all buyins, not a subscriber so cant check his stats at specifically 1ks) but I never argued for a second that it wasn't attainable.

[/ QUOTE ] If you are really really really really sick (aka can play ridiculous hours) and good its probably possible, of course counting the huge value of the FPPs and the bonuses stars is giving out to supernova elites.

[/ QUOTE ] sure [/ QUOTE ] Okay, I don't want to wait a full year for a bet so here is what I propose: if you earn over 83k in a month playing SNGs, I ship $1600. If you don't, you ship me $1600. For as long as you want. Results to be verified by Sharkscope. If anyone else has any suggestions for this bet, gogogogo
