No one knows how much he withdrew and thus all speculation.

Hmmm yes. He had 780k, if he cashed out 100k as speculated he lost 680k. Yeah he's up from his original 10k deposit, but it's not difficult to comprehend he has lost a ****load. It's not like that 780k was play money chips, he had it, and now he doesn't.

And the odds on that 100k cash out being redeposited within a week?

At the end of the day we do KNOW he had $10k to start with and then $100 in his account at one point and had swings, which went as high as 750k over a period of 2weeks but potentially now has walked away with 100k I'd say either way this is a winning result, basically gambling $10k on a 10-1 shot and coming out on top I'd say, good job pokerparty.

He had around 16k when he left today. But no doubt the 780k he had he doesn't have now.

At least based on his HSDB graph, he was at -$132k at some point in April 2012... and HSDB has him +$31k for 2012... so very possible his roll was $162K or so, he cashed out $100k, and has $60k or so left on Stars.

The one discrepancy I'm not sure of (and I may just be reading it wrong)... he tweeted that his roll was $781k, but his peak in the last 30 days hsdb graph is only about $400k

But that could be do to either hsdb missing some hands, or him immediately going on a downswing after that tweet, and the data points being coalesced in the graph.

he has shown that he s capable of turning 5k into 500k numerous times so why not cash out lets say 700k and try to run up the 80k again? he can play 10/20 with that. he must be slightly ******ed

Yet when Isildur sits with his last 20k and change at 200/400, or burns through 500k in an hour after playing for 24 hours, he's a sicko and an idol.

Even good players can be degens/gamblers..

People like him would never get on the runs they do if they thought like this.

Yeah this is very true. I would say I hope he does it one time to be a huge help in the future, but he would invariably re-depo it or something. Next time he goes on a huge run he should try and cash out a milly and put it in some fund he can't touch until he's 40.

Even considering the sick swings of plo he obviously has some serious talent to be able to go on a run like that several times, we'll seem him again though

last time i checked he was rolling in dough, who did he donate to? (im assuming he tilted a lot to lose so much in so short of a timeframe)

I mean he had the balls to risk everything and go for glory, so yeah that's quite admirable. You can say "but once you get to a million you should play conservatively" but any one who thinks like this would do this long before a million. If this is the way he thought, he'd have stopped at 400plo.

The guy has heart, yes he's stupidly reckless, but it's an exciting ride and that's why people enjoy following him. He's flawed, but that's also admirable, because we're all flawed too.
