lol, yeah. i suppose looking back at my comments they seem a bit dumb, but people dont realize how much MU we have, how much scamming goes on, how much we re-invest. After our recent big scores, its not like i got 100k cashout. i actually cashed out exactly 0 from all that.
having a hard time explaining...but meh

But as we all know many go onto to burn money and lose it in the poker world,what makes some of these guys tends to break them
How different is the staking world now compared to your first 12 months of backing?
Given $1,000 now ,only staking SNG grinders and low stakes MTTers on your own ,how long do you think it would take you to make $100k from backing players?
How old are you now?
well, if i was from the UK i would have a ton more money than i do now. the tax man really kills a lot of profits for US people. i dont really spend to much money on stuff, but i think you are missing the point of what i am saying. I wanna be able to just travel the world/chill/not worry about money at all. for me, that would take me having like 10m+. doubt i can make that from poker staking.
The first 12 months of backing were pretty ridic. Pageh656 and I were one of the few people in the MP and got pretty much all the applications. obv everything was softer then and a lot less variance. we were also staking for mtt sngs, so was less variance overall. it was def a lot better time to be staking than now. so many backers dilute the MP with their idiotic deals/short sightedness. Like, if all backers would just look at the long term, staking would be a lot better.
Kinda hard to say how long it would take to make 100k. i am sure i could do it again, but would be a lot tougher cause all these mtt sng guys get ridic deals now that are ******ed for backers to give out.
i am 26

I think a decent advantage i have over a lot of people now is that i have been around the MP so much and have pretty good name recognition. think that helps a lot.
mtt sngs arent a fun grind though. need bigger sweats
