If he's down that much on his all in's he'd be down overall, not making the $3/hr he's claiming, that makes his #'s even less credible. Obviously some people have had more short term 'luck' than others but how many hands do you think he's had to play to be all in 1k times? The #'s in his post simply don't add up so I'm not inclined to give it much credibility that he's calculated his sklansky bucks honestly/correctly either.

Does anyone actually believe anything in the OP?
The only thing that might be true is
"I'm thinking about giving up poker."
