Probably fake. Maybe if he posts 2p2 in chat on stars or something as proof.

He won the sit and go.
He's obviously going for the epic spin-up again.

2K to 700K by the end of the weekend ?

Something that I've always considered;

If you won the lottery, a gross amount (50 million +), would you play in the Stars High Stakes games?

Would it excite you?

My initial reaction is yes, for a very short period. You would then quickly habitualise to the value of the money and lose the excitement.

For the previous spin-up session, I think in the end, he ran it up to $800k, and then lost a bunch, but ended up +$130k overall.

Kanu7 misplayed that 3h2h hand badly, he should have gone all in instead of betting $10,200 regardless of giving himself odds to call all in. Dont really get what he was thinking, can't be about balancing either?

Its cheaper to fold bluff/check raises and enables him to shove and beat missed draws that don't 4bet turn when both miss.

That's pretty sick that jama-dharma got to 134 bb at a push-or-fold table (at the 888 500/1k table)

Yeah I'd buy that for balancing any other draw or made hand but the fact that he's giving patpatman the chance to go all in with any straight, flush draw or air + being a favorite for over 100bbs on turn which started with 9bb can be given some weight as well, maybe not enough to play it unbalanced I guess then..

No need for that Dave, I'm doing pretty well IRL so you can keep ruling NVG feeling good
