Are there any consistent tourneys that are over 100$?
I mean usually 100$ is the highest a room runs for MTTs unless it is the end of the month.

I'm sure if FT or UB had 500+50 that ran every night JB would play those. 100$ is nothing... you can play those with a 10k roll if your good. or w/ a 1k roll if your a degen.

I would say, JB is worth over a million, mainly b/c he seems like he understands how money is made. This means he does uses his capital wisely; ie investing is stocks, websites, etc...

I doubt he is worth 10mil. However there is no way anyone he can prove it. We can only judge his net worth by what we see. I'd say he is worth 4 mil max, and no lower than 1.5 mil.

anyone with 10 mil would never play $100 tournies that is for sure

I'm quite sure Bax is over-olled for the $100 tournies (and $3-rebuys) that he often plays. And, although I have no actual idea, I wouldn't be surprised if his net worth was way over 10M.

Over 1M?!?! Wow you guys are bold!

I mean, you do realize there were careers before poker, and that before Bax was a poker player, he was very successful in the finance sector and has a big family and probably lots of nice things in his house. ONE MILLION DOLLARS! lol.

You have no idea about online MTTs do you?

There are quite a few MTTs with over a $100 buy-in every day. I have no idea if Bax lives solely off of MTTs, but if he does, I'm guessing he plays the $100s simply for volume. You're right about one thing, if you multitable hard, there aren't enough MTTs with $100+ buy-ins.

He had almost 1mil in live winnings last year...

http://pokerdb.thehendonmob.com/play...=s&n=29765

Plus online winning, and his business...

Around 3-5mil maybe?

Anyone know how successful his business actually is? I don't know if they get a ton of customers since cardrunners is the main teaching site.

OMFG for the last time, if we're talking about his "net worth" and not "the amount of money he made playing poker" you guys will never guess or even come close, is my hunch. I'd guess that the amt he has made in poker pales in comparison to what he earned in his previous career, and this whole thread is a good example of why trying to count other people's money is retarded.

Shaniac is right here. To back the staggering number of horrible tournament players that he and sheets do, they'd both have to be extremely wealthy.
