from everything I've ever heard the guy is primarily a headsup specialist who is also a very good shorthanded player.

I believe he also won the WCOOP main event a few years back, which is a pretty big score.

You can multitable online as well...

I believe he's made almost $5 million playing the highest stakes on-line exclusively.

Playing where?inter 300/600?I'm not sure about that number you need a ridiculous winrate to make this much


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------



It could be done in a year if you can clear 1.426 BB/hr from a $300/$600 game (assuming you play 16 hours a day, 365 days a year, heh), or equivalently, in two years with that rate playing 8 hours a day.

I don't know what kind of timeframe we're talking about here, but if it's two years or more, it certainly seems possible.

What does he make in Rakeback? I imagine he makes more in rakeback than 90% of poker players make in a year. I also made 5 million playing 300-600 unfortunatly that was PP fake money.....

I doubt he makes much (if anything at all) on rakeback. Ladbrokes doesn't offer it and he's had his UB account since way before rakeback became commonplace. He might have it at Crypto, but since their rake is capped at $3 or £3 (possibly less in shorthanded games) I would be surprised if he made more in rakeback than people who multitable 5/10 and 10/20 6 max at Party.

I just saw him playing 200/400 6max on ladbrokes. He seems to play somewhat tight(I estimate an 21vip) and straightforward but maybe he was just card dead
