He's only played in 8 events, just 1 of which had a buy-in over $2000. If I were someone who had a piece of his action (which I do), I don't mind seeing him bust out early in the low buy-in events - hell, I don't mind seeing him bust out in all of the events provided he's playing his best which I'm sure he is. Good luck, Gavin.

I guess he is just making us wait till the main event final table to pocket some cash.

as of right now, I'm a little glad I invested only 1/2 a percent -

but I could easily live to regret that decision.

They always pay slightly less than 10% so an average player would cash in 1/10 events. With the lower buyin events with huge fields such as the 1500 events I would expect a lower percentage of cashes but a higher overall earn perhaps 3-4x buyin but still unlikely.

So I suppose a really good player could average cashing 1/8 times but one would also certainly have extended periods with zero cashes.

Given the laisse-faire attitude we've seen in your sports bets, this post doesn't surprise me

Must be nice to be rich :P

Let me be the first to say, I think you will be able to look back at this thread and think how silly it is.

Huge fields = huge variance, but he'll put in some nice tourneys. =)

I know it is silly. That doesn't mean I can't hope he takes down 11 bracelets this year.
