Default 9 Handed 150/300 Absolute

You don't see the game 9 handed often. Calvinhobbes did win the BB jackpot for $162,000 the other day. Coincidence?

do you mean they made the jackpot hit because there were 9 players at the 150/300 table?

Just because he hit the jackpot makes him a fish right?

Watched him play for a while and he was cleaning up the 150/300 game on AP. Solid player actually.

He definitely wasn't solid. He was a brutally bad player. I don't even play limit and if I had the coin in my AP acct. I would've sat.

He isnt that bad.

But if he was good enough to win that big, he'd have done it without the assistance of a windfall gain like the BBJ.



This isnt a case of a successful 2/4 player making the jump to 10/20. This is a probably break-even 5/10 and 10/20 player jumping into big games, playing against people who are almost all pros.

He'll lose whatever he sits with... it just might take a while because he isnt THAT much worse than the competition.

PAHUD numbers read:

37/18/1.9 after 500 hands
