Ivey, Reese, Ly, and Giang. Harman plays there a lot, too. I have been told Ivey and Giang do well,

You forgot Bill Fillmaff, who dominated in it, as documented in Secret System 5.

1/4 BB per hour is the long run win rate according to Lederer.

$2000 an hour, that is insane.

Aren't they playing rake-free? I'm pretty sure the casino does this since it has become a bit of a novelty. But it is live poker, and it will take years of hands to see who's making more than 1 or 2 BB/100.

I seriously doubt someone beats that game for more than 1 BB in the long term.

also i think chip reese does fairly well. although i don't think anyone beats that game for more than 3-4bb's/day, probably less than that.

More like .5BB-1bb.

Since they play a mix of games some players just can not beat certain games as well as others can. That makes it so the most well rounded player comes up on top. A lot of players have bigger edges in the game then you guys are making it sound.

It seems that they'd just trade money back and forth and everyone loses because of the casino taking it's cut.

Yeah for sure, you just can't beat the rake in a $4k/8k game.

Why are you always so mean?

I am just being sarcastic.
