Default Is this guy a fish or what?

From Card Player:
http://www.cardplayer.com/poker_maga...php?a_id=14268

The guy is boasting to have won $10M in a $100K-200K game over a two day period. He also admits to being an overall loser at the Bellagio game.

$10 million at that limit is 50 big bets. I don't know of a fish that hasn't had a 50 BB streak, and I don't know a real card player who would boast of having one.

But I've never heard of him, so what do I know. Is this guy a fish or a real player?

He is a smart guy so he is probably a very good player. Unfortuantely a very good player is going to lose when playing the very best players.

This challenge is really more about ego than anything.

If you can solve this problem, or find a counterexample, he'll give you 100K.

"If A to the power of x plus B to the power of y equals C to the power of z, where A, B, C, x, y and z are positive integers and x, y and z are greater than 2, then A, B, and C must have a common factor."

No foolin.
