Thanks for this info, if it's accurate, that's all I wanted to know if he was here for round 3 but I guess not, 13 pages of bs nonsense, everyone went way off topic on this thread

Re: Andy Beal back in town?

it's accurate. If he plays the big game again, it will be a couple of years minimum. and possibly not ever.

Re: Andy Beal back in town?

Someone said the board of the Beal Bank doesn't want him playing anymore. Kind of bad PR for your bank to have national media coverage of the President gambling away millions.

This might be one of those things where you just won't understand it if your main game is 2/5 live NL or 200NL online.

why does everything have to be over a ''meaningfull sample size''? Its just a phrase people coined up to make them feel good when theyre losing against someone they think they are better then. in all honestly you rarely play against the same player long enough to have a large enough sample size,get real, just play the game and if your good you will win money
