Re: $80M Game?!?
From what I understand, Beal has been playing in multi-million dollar games against the top pros for years. In that time, he has apparently become one of the top heads-up NL players in the world, so I think that he actually has a very good chance of getting the best of it in this game.

I do think it will hard for him to win due to factors I haven't seen anyone mention yet. Stamina, both physical and mental. [/ QUOTE ] I read somewhere that he sat in the big game for ridiculous amounts of time wearing headphones and not saying a word. He has to have a little stamina.

Re: $80M Game?!?
Based on Beals previous comments and statements in Cardplayer, he's strictly a heads up Limit Hold'em specialist, not No Limit. I would suspect that his odds of winning would be substantially less in a no limit format.

consider tax shelters... [/ QUOTE ] I am reminded of the scene in office space where they are trying to figure out what to do with the money and someone suggests they should launder it. Can you elaborate on exactly how you would apply "tax shelters" to the issue at hand?

Can you elaborate on exactly how you would apply "tax shelters" to the issue at hand? [/ QUOTE ] What to do with the money? How 'bout another scene from "Office Space"? Peter: What would you do if you had a million dollars? Lawrence: I'll tell you what I'd do, man, two chicks at the same time, man. Peter: That's it? If you had a million dollars, you'd do two chicks at the same time? Lawrence: Damn straight. I always wanted to do that, man. And I think if I had a million dollars I could hook that up, cause chicks dig a dude with money. Peter: Well, not all chicks. Lawrence: Well the kind of chicks that'd double up on a dude like me do. Peter: Good point. Lawrence: Well what about you now? what would you do? Peter: Besides two chicks at the same time? Lawrence: Well yeah. Peter: Nothing. Lawrence: Nothing, huh? Peter: I'd relax, I would sit on my ass all day, I would do nothing. Lawrence: Well you don't need a million dollars to do nothing, man. Just take a look at my cousin, he's broke, don't do $hit. So, 80 million dollars? 2 chicks at the same time for 80 times?
