right now, a large pizza deliverd to my doorstep. when i wake up in the morning, probably in the 500k range, give or take a little. last year, in teh 1-2 million dollar range. if this were real and someone piled up a couple hundred k on teh kitchen table i may make a snap decision and take it. definitely not for less than 200k though

Jeff,

Thanks for replying. You are most likely the highest earning player in this thread, aside from maybe Timex. Why do u feel this way? Clearly your outlook on the game has changed from a year ago, i was wondering if you mind expanding on this a bit.

Is it your personal skill level you question? Or just the state of the game given the legislation?

Inquiring minds....

[/ QUOTE ]

state of the game. players getting better, no guarantee for a future for online poker. Also if I had $2m on top of my current net worth I would have so much expendable money that I could do so much with.... + the opportunity cost of all those hours playing poker. Also now that players are slightly better so much is variance and luck, meh.

[/ QUOTE ]online that is definatelty the case,after the uiga usa based online sites are just mostly filled with really good players and not too many fish. live players much easier to beat than online as a rule.im from uk so i can play all the uk sportsbook sites which are still full of tons of fish.theres always black jack to go back to if it goes [censored] up anyway

2m I'd take it.

1.75m I'd have to think it over.

probably like 20M

If you had a fraction of this you could live very comfortably off investments. I don't think it needs to be this large.
