What I'd love to see are his results graphed out over time. Based on a quick peek at bigstack, it looks like he lost quite a bit of money before he started to make a serious profit.


[/ QUOTE ]

currently, his Stars/Full Tilt/Party PokerDB PROFITS show him to be profiting 1,045,000 million dollars. (His total earnings are 1.76 million) He also has near 400k in live winnings and has played less than 10 tourneys live. I'm not sure what you are saying that it looks like he lost quite a bit of money before he started making a profit, he would have had to lose tons and tons of money to negate what he has done.

[/ QUOTE ]

What I mean is that the big cashes have come after a considerable slope downward. Based on the little that I saw/know, he played through a lot of losses before blowing up. Just wondered how far he was in the hole before taking the rocket out.

from what i can tell he broke even for a couple months at worst, could be looking wrong though, I'm looking Jan 06-March 06

Just like 2+2, flame a guy because of his looks. He is a sick player and a great guy.

[/ QUOTE ]

Thats's not "his looks". He wasn't born that way. He chose to wear what he wears.

[/ QUOTE ]

Who cares how his this guy dresses? The only reason this is even a topic of discussion is because he's a successful tourney player.

For all we know, this could just be a ploy to get people to underestimate his skils. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

F da haters, lilholdem

I dont think it does. Being fat is better than being a wigger.
