I think it's fascinating that Brian said this in his blog just a few weeks ago:

[ QUOTE ]
But more than that I think I have accomplished pretty much every goal I set for myself in poker and am now not as interested in playing. I never really played or cared about the money. I always played because I really enjoyed poker and I think that is one reason why I have had so much success. It's very hard to motivate yourself to play if poker is just a job or way to make ends meet. So I am not going to play anymore today and I will never force myself to play if I don't want to because that's a recipe for disaster.

[/ QUOTE ]

And in today's blog entry, Brian discusses how he loves poker and wakes up every morning looking forward to it. Not criticizing him, but it seems to sum up that a poker player's recent results are reflected in their mood and outlook on life.

jesus christ how much money does he have, even bill gates would never say that

I would guess (because seriously I'm clueless about thist stuff) that a lot of Gates's worth is in the market, and that a 4M swing can't be that insane or rare for a guy with his wealth
