During the infamous uncapped low stakes game, Mahatma was going off on many players including GP. His opinion is apparently that GP has simply never run bad and has been quite lucky for a long time but is not a particularly tough opponent. Others who were there can correct me if I'm wrong in this.

Railbirding the $50/100 tables a couple of days ago, he was talking about how Green Plastic has "probably never had a run where he lost most than $100K" and saying that he was the luckiest player he'd ever seen. This wasn't after a bad beat or losing a big pot, and Green Plastic wasn't even at the table at the time.

There is absolutely no way he puts in anywhere close to that amount of hours. He'll have rediculously long stretches but he definitely isn't playing 6000 hours of poker a year, you can count on that.

If someone held a gun to my head I'd guess he has about a 6-8M roll. I bet in the last 3 years he's bringing home on average 1-1.5M/year playing online poker.

1: The poster estimated 1500 hrs/yr, not 6000. I would not be surprised at all if Prah played over 2000 hrs last year.

2: People are VASTLY overestimating the size of his roll when tossing around numbers like $15-20M. This is based on no personal knowledge, just common sense.

That was sent before the ill-fated 30M HU NL match he played at Bellagio a couple weeks ago.

he talks this [censored] to everybody. I've seen him do it to kkf, bruiser and i'm sure gp isn't anything special.

What? Linkage? (I googled, figuring that there should have been something written somewhere (found nothing), and trying to use 2+2's search engine on something like this is damn near impossible.)
