I can explain what I am getting at. She played the main event, subtract 10k from that. There ya go.

So did Alobar. He didn't pay 10K.

She was probably sponsored/backed, so it's irrelevant, but are you saying winning a supersatellite is worthy of continuous TV coverage?

No, I'm saying that the website you linked to isn't very convincing. It could be incomplete in more ways than one (like it is with daryn). Also, she is hot, and if she is a very good ring game player her fame is deserved regardless of her tournament play.

There is a lot of info we don't have and I'm not going to jump to conclusions and pretend those conclusions are set in stone.

Although I will admit it seems highly likely she isn't a very good tourney player.

Still, I have no idea of the reliability of that website. If I presented something that incomplete as evidence at work I'd be fired.

I am not the OP, we have similar names but there is a subtle difference. Mine is better.

I am a very good ring game player and have a better tourney record than her this year playing barely any live tournies. You want to be in my entourage? Bring on the cameras!

They are not. That is glen's point.

I must be missing something. In every single event listed her prize appears bigger than the buy-in. How can they be negative?

$ 1,500 No Limit Hold'em - $ 4,860

profit = 3,360

$ 1,500 Limit Hold'em Shootout - $ 1,865

profit 365

$ 1,500 No Limit Hold'em - $ 2,865

profit 1365.

I understand this website doesn't list her losses but linking to this website as proof she is a losing player isn't very convincing. Seriously, what am I missing?

[/ QUOTE ]

Given those numbers, how often must she be in the money to be a break even player? She looks to be pretty close to requiring a 50% itm to be profitable. Of course the sample size listed here is way to small and if she making her money in cash games, maybe not relevant

ugh... just did some google searches.

Couldn't find a win bragging page for her.

Also, it looks like that website does a pretty good job.

You guys are right, she obviously sucks. I hope you guys understand where I was coming from. I'm a very thorough person, I have to think like that when I'm at work. Taking anything for granted will get you in serious trouble.
