The guy's got $50 billion, playing $3-6 is no different to $3,000,000-6,000,000 for him.

I read somewhere that the reason he doesn't play higher stakes is because he wants to feel he can beat the game.

Seems like he's more of a poker player than a gambler.

i see that a lot of ppl put more than 7.5 million....500bb = 4 million ? care to discuss?


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------



sure. If you're a losing player, there is no adequate bankroll. So one billion dollars would not be enough to not go broke in that game given enough


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------




er, that pertains to nothing what i said? its commonly accepted that 300bb for a full game and 500 for a 6 max game, is the br that leaves little chance for a winning player to bust......so Im just making the point, that 4 million is adequate, if that is your only your BR, obv. ??????????????


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------



It doesn't matter if your bankroll is 1,000,000,000 $, you're going to go broke in the Big Game if you are not a +EV player in it. No bankroll is sufficient for a losing player.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------



In addition, the 300 BB bankroll is the rule of thumb for a 1 BB per hour winner. Even the top players in the 4K/8K game are supposedly not even making a small bet per hour.

If I had a huge lottery win, I might possibly play in this game - *once*.

Buy in for 30BB. Just for the experience. Heck, I might even finish up for the night [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
