how does it feel looking in your email and getting that congratulatory email from pokerstars letting you know you have been credited $100,000 plus? or winniing a wpt championship for $1 million plus?

depends on what stakes the person plays. someone like ivey isn't enthused. it's all about what the person considers a lot of money.

Anti climactic i am guessing. After all the struggle there is emptiness.

And then blamed it on variance. Somebody posted:

Quote:

tournaments variance is even greater than cashgames...

and he replies:

Quote:

Also tournament variance is much lower for me, since that's more my style. I never was down in tournaments. I'll come back and play small ring games without heads up after the WSOP probably.
