(I didn't count the 11k you make in rakeback going from 800k-1m as that's just normal 30%, 3.5x VPP rakeback that you'll get any time)

So I'm still sticking by my statement that 'planning to drop 30k to get to 1million' is not a good deal to take

Wasn't trying to rehash, just remembered you both going back and forth and thought of this thread seeing that post.

Congrats on SNE! And you even had time to donk around and play some micro badugi. Now if only La Peste would tell us if he crushed the Bellagio 15 or not...

it's so disappointing though that you get the same ****** popup as a bronze player, I mean if someone grinds his ass off for sne then the minimum would be some fireworks animation or some chick with a sexy voice calling you on the phone to congratulate.

Law school? SNE grinder? What's next on your list of crimes against humanity? Becoming a Somali warlord?

Hehe, grats dude and gl on the finals. You'll have to let us know your poker income at the end of the year... it's gotta be pretty sick.

Thanks everyone!

Daq: Totally agree that the popup is lame. There is all this buildup to get to SNE and then there is no real immediate reward. The tourneys are all in 2011, the 5x multiplier is great but to get a benefit you have to play more hands, and the $10k cash option also can't be taken until next year.

UG: Other crimes against humanity: Commercial real estate developer. This has been my best year by a good bit since UIGEA. Idk if I want to post my income on a public forum but if you look at PTR starting this year and then add 120 for SNE its pretty close.

Lots of folks here will be higher than that, Elo, Trypt, SG, UG, MCN, JDalla, JLocke, Boc, others I am sure I am forgetting. I just have a healthy work ethic and can put the hands in.

668k but some of those were donking around at PLO, microstakes, badugi, mixed games etc.

Relevant quantities of hands:
445k 5/T
159k T/20
39k 15/30
7.5k higher

lol, unpossible. You are the true sicko. You could set the VPP record if you really wanted to. 100k hands in 10 days is ridiculous.
