I think the statement is a blantant lie. I have never seen barry or howard play the 500/1000 games online.

Why would they play that small?

And if they are so great at no limit as they also claim why arent they playing in the 100/200 nl game on prima.

[/ QUOTE ]

So you repeatedly think these guys should, for whatever reason, step down in stakes. To prove themselves, or something? Interesting take.

You get in at least 2x as many hands in, and also these are not huge jump downs in stakes. And Prima has 200/400 HU NL. I dont think any of those pro's would have a singificant edge, if they have any, over guys like Prahlad, greenplastic, Erik 123 etc...

They play primarily mixed games and play maybe 1/10th as many hands per month of limit or NL hold-em in particualar. There is no reason online specialists in these areas would be big underdogs.

500/1000 is a huge jump down from 4k/8k against the world's best, there are pros who beat 500/1k games live but get eaten up in the big game. I don't doubt that some of the big pros might haev a little trouble initially online as they adjust, but then they would crush those games provided they could keep interested long enough.
