Even if it's 8k/16k that still an amazing 1250 bbs. If they cap it at 100k instead of 100k that's still 100 buyins. I guess TonyG is telling the truth but it's pretty f'in amazing.

Something tells me we would have seen a post here if they were playing 8/16k for a whole week.

So let's say it's the standard game 4k/8k also with 1k/2k NL with 100k Cap. That's 200 capped pots or 2500 bbs. I know it's something in the middle but that's an amazing number for a game which most people couldn't even imagine crushing. There must be some huge donators there right now.

If ever I got that much $ no way would I continue to play in big cash games where you can win/lose a million in a session. To me cash games are just like work and get boring. I'd end up just playing tournaments for fun for the rest of my life. But for the most part these guys can't stop gambling so I doubt 99% of them that play in that game could do that ...

even if true, he won't be able to quit that game now, and will probably lose it all.

What makes you think Binyamine is a losing player? FWIW, Jean-Robert Bellande told me that David made $12,000,000 in that game last year and was easily the biggest winner in the game. And regardless of what else you have to say about JRB, he is definitely in the know when it comes to Bellagio gossip.
