Brian Townsend's Downswing (for all the Brian Townsend haters)

[El Diablo]

busted,

There would be a chance that he goes broke except for the $400,000 a month he's pulling in from his 25% ownership share of CardRunners.

Your living in fairytale world sir. Experience comes by reflecting on your play and you cannot I repeat cannot do that playing 4 5 6 games at the same time. You are very new to poker to understand or kidding yourself. Wisdom from an elderly player. Hope this sinks in before your bankroll does

I hope you're kidding. You've got it exactly backwards.

lol at $400k/month from card runners. That implies they do $1.6 million per month. At $25/ month, they'd have 64,000 active members. If you assume that 2+2 and P5's is the entire potential market, your basically saying they have 200% market share. Don't delude yourself.

i've been playin this game all of my life. not even close to "very new to poker" much more less to gambling. and again, i don't expect u to understand b/c u r just not smart enough to get a grasp for it. just wanted to let u know that yes, it CAN be done and in fact is done everyday by different people (althou very few).

I LOL at calling anybody that young one of the best holdem players in the world. How can someone playing a short time 2 =3 years be considered one of the best.
He is having a bad run . I assume his first (getting life lessons are hard)and will not be this last. Part of growing up. I feel sorry for all the KIDS quiting their jobs to play poker. The test of time will tell you are the best.
I also am NOT impressed by very wealth people playing high stakes poker and being considered great,just because they play high stakes.

he's probably played more NLHE than any old-school live player

just playing tons of hands is not enough, you have to have time to absorb the lessons learned.
