Which is why I said he had edge on me, specifically HU and short handed as well, because that's what he specialized in. I don't think his edge is because he plays $10K and SHRs regularly... It's because he's a beast HU/shorthanded and is probably about as close as it gets to optimal in the 0-30BB range. I don't really get your point, though, I said he had a lot of edge on me in the formats he plays.

I posted all of my results, I've played around 100 hours of tourneys in the last 1.5 years live and some more online, and a lot more online in the past. The results/stats are all in my staking thread, no need to retype it. I subscribe to RunItOnce, and I have read two tourney books this year, and also watched a couple of Vanessa Selbst tourney videos. I don't think they were on RIO, but I don't remember where they were. A free sample, or something? They were like 40 mins to an hour each, so not some five minute thing. I'm also in four study groups... Two focus on cash NLHE, one is more tournament based with some cash, and one is PLO.

First of all, 400bb deep is completely irrelevant in almost any tournament. The Main Event starts 300bb deep. By tournament standards 80bb+ is pretty deep stacked, and I'd expect to have really good edge on tourney players 80-100bb+.
Throughout my entire poker playing life - professionally, and in college part-time, I've played a lot in deep games. I played in an underground 1/2 game that was effectively uncapped (you could rebuy how much you were stuck), and that game was almost always $1,000+ deep late in the night and ran til morning. I historically have played a ton of long sessions, so I ended a lot of 1/2 sessions at the casino playing $800-$1,500 deep, and would have opponents $600+ deep pretty often after they doubled a 150bb buyin. While you may not consider a 1K stack deep at $2/5, when people buyin for $800-$1K, usually you're going to have several players at the table $1,500-$2,500 deep once the game's been going a little while. I've pretty routinely played 300bb+ deep at 2/5, and sometimes as deep as 700-800bb. At 5/T, I've played in uncapped games and ended up 400+bb deep several times in my small sample size, and as deep as about 750bb.

Where have I said anything that made you think I'd sell at NO markup to anyone? I have literally one friend I'd sell 1% to at no markup, and that's it. Or my parents, if they asked... But if I shipped a big score, I'd be doing some nice things for them anyway.

I have a lot more hours than that playing 200+ and often 300bb-500bb+ deep... And the pros playing the tournament circuit have very little experience that deep... A $1,675 WSOPc event starts 400bb deep with 40 minute levels. Your average WSOP $1,500 NL event starts 150bb deep with 1 hour levels. The only people who are going to have more experience deep stacked than me are people who have been playing uncapped 2/5 or 5/T games regularly for a longer time than I have.

I don't make a habit of playing people in grudge matches or letting pissing contests impact my decisions on what games to play, but if you come to my casino and want to play 2/5 HU and I'm not in a good 5/T or great 2/5 game, I'll gladly play you. I'm not going to take a lower hourly or shell out travel costs to prove a point, but I have no qualms about playing you HU at 2/5.
