benyamine busto

[cbloom]

Why would you ever transfer to anyone but a fish that you were trying to play with?

[NNNNOOOOONAN]

the way he's been acting/playing lately, i don't think fish is too far off. just ask jman [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

[Gobias Ind.]

I remember reading the CP article about how he was broke before the WSOP 2 years ago. Then he won the EPT/WPT event in Europe. Then went on a sick run during the WSOP in the big game.

Now possibly busto again? Is he a complete and total degenerate, or is it just a cycle that never ends with this lifestyle?

[NNNNOOOOONAN]

he mentioned something recently about being completely addicted to poker and playing hours and hours on end. i know a lot of us do the same thing, but he is ridiculous. he's also a degen in the pit to so i wouldn't doubt that he really can't stop. we'll see how long till e. schoenberg goes over to aba's side.

losing millions probably isn't as sad as the fact that we take time out of our day to talk about it tho. lol

he must be down 500+ in the past 2 weeks, correct?

he lost 300 to Jeff in one night alone.

And he won almost 800k last month on ft. It's probably just with the recent huge losses to Patrik and Jeff that he is short on FT.
Someone like Benyamine with several pros thinking that when he is on, almost noone is better, has almost indefinite credit I would think. Think of how someone like Matusow rarely has big problems loaning money. On a smaller scale of course, but within the big game circle that Benyamine moves in I'm sure borrowing a 100k is completely standard.
Benyamine is just unlucky that unlike Antonius neither Sbrugby or Wahlroos (HE has played in the Farha plo game though) are really part of that circle.

also he has been playing almost daily on stars 2/4 Omaha, so it is possible he moved a large sum from ftp to stars to play there, then went on a bad run on ftp.


cashout curse applies to everyone I guess [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Whats with this Farha PLO game you speak of Bjorn? I know he is supposed to be one of the best PLO players out there.

Indeed. But the swings he is taking are almost unbearable.

Gus said on some radioshow that David is the one with the sickest swings of them al.

Some random big sessions in PTO:
01/11/07: +264k
02/03/07: -514k
02/04/07: +187k
