Is this guy for real? He plays so good it's sick. Also, is it one person? He's been either multi-tabling the 1k step (or waiting to), every time I've logged onto Party for the past 2 1/2 days. Could a bot play a NL SST? Is he on some kind of mission?

I don't play STT's a lot and when I do, it's certainly not the $200's or 1k's. But this guy/gal seems pretty amazing.

lol... Gigabet is such a celebrity. Having played and chatted with him a fair bit I can confirm to you that he isn't a bot. He posts here sometimes.

I hear AleoMagus is writing a book on SNG basics... if he could get Gigabet to write an endorsement, then slapped a big "Learn To Play Like GIGABET!" sticker on the front, sales would probably triple.

Yep, he's real, and yep, he's good, and yep, he muti-tables the 1k steps.

Have a look in the MTT forum for a very long discussion of one of his hands. Just search his name in the subject line.

He seems to make quite an hourly rate multitabling the $1000s.

I wonder who he is. I guess there are a lot of successful professionals who are not known from TV.

I have a note on him that says "raises a lot." I don't play the big SNGs, so I must have been at the same table as him in a $200 or $600 MTT.
