But maybe your comment was a joke, idk.
semantics, buddy. look it up.

Last two and a half weeks it's -$6.663.569,17. For the year durrrr is down 6.0m (Gus is "only" down 4.7m). Ziig's win yesterday makes him third biggest winner in 2009 with +4.1m.

Then he also played in the mixed game!!!
Which actually seemed to be quite funny as aside from the PLO and NL games, he apparently had absolutely no clue what he was doing ( although this is what he said, he could be hustling everyone at the table though.
He won a couple of big pots in NLH and PLO, and also won 2 BIG ones in Razz, yet he also donked away in the stud games.


All in all a fairly entertaining evening with lots of surprises ( Isildur playing the mixed games, ziigmund not wanting to play isil HU anymore, benyamine winning vs Isil ), yet I want to see what happens when Isildur takes the time to study some of the mixed games and see what happens ^^

I find the Isi v Ivey talk a little baffling. Surely we're comparing oranges and apples here.

We're talking about at this point an unknown on a huge hotstreak over a short period of time. Albeit a burning white hot streak. He hasn't been seen to run bad yet, will he tilt? give up? He can obviously multitable NLHE and PLO well.

On the other hand we have a guy who's still only 32, has 7 bracelets in 6 different disciplines. He' been crushing biggest online and live cash games for a long time, in HU, short handed and full ring. No he's probably not the greatest guy at 10 tabling a mixture of PLO and NLHE, but dont think he wants to be either.

I'm not exactly an Ivey fanboy but think it's hardly time to talk of handing over the mantle yet. I would suspect Ivey is paying a lot of attention and will be back, more than likely on his terms.

I do find this all very interesting though, and wait to see what comes in the near future when a Durrr or zig get on a card rush. Will he be so eager to give them action? I hope so

Look at the amount of 40-50K non-showdown pots Isildur took against PA and durrrr in NLHE. That wasn't just some regular "hot streak". durrrr took most of his big pots when they were down to 2-3 tables. I have seldom seen anyone dominating the actions that sick in nosebleeds, maybe durrrr against Laliberte...

Conclusion - when multitabling, "running good" has jack **** to do with Isildurs results. Sure, it might have quickened the process, but the end result would have been just the same.

edit: One tabling Ivey he might not have an edge, could be quite the opposite. But he has shown IMO that his multitabling HU skills is awesome. No question about it.
