40:1 is ridiculous. I turned $400 into 9k+ in 2 months earlier this year playing .25/.50-2/4. And I wasn't getting SN FPPs at the time. 10:1 and maybe the odds would be realistic.

I took 32 cents on FTP and turned it into $20,000 in a couple of months time. This was last year.

Lead me to think this:

I'm not quite sure why I would accept this arrangement.

I'm offering you 40x your previous starting BR. What's in it for you? Half of $800,000. LDO. You want 60%? I'll ship the $12.62 and we can start today, if you want.

The way I run this month is so ridiculous. I win every ****ing day I start pokerstars. I'm really scared, that variance will find me and punish me for sucking out every hand.

Eh I tweaked it to look as bad as possible.

Even with that downswing, the WR is near 1BB/100 for the last 90k hands 9-tabling. I can live with that.
