In that interview with Doyle Brunson which was posted recently in NVG, he tells the journalist that he went busto a hundred times in his career. So this self-selected group choosing to post here may be being honest that "i went busto 3 times" (lol) but going busto 3 times is probably not representative of most players.

LOL, you take a sample size of 1 person and then claim that tens of other players here are not representative

your reasoning is flawed, DUCY?

Doyle didn't have the benefit of the stake selections that the internet provides. Therefore, your 1 person sample is irrelevant. K, thx!

I've had 2 accts go busto a total of 3x, but I have never been 100% busto for my whole BR.

I can only remember one time I went busto since i started playing semi-seriously. It was just bad luck+ bad BR management + unexpected expenses + playing horribly due to tilt all at the same time, not a winning combo imo.
