Congrats to him and I hope he enjoys his money, but this isn't exactly something to be that proud of.

So excelling in your professional field is not something be proud of?

Where the hell do you guys get these thoughts from.

He made a large amount of money. Past that it's up to him to share if he really wants to.

Poker's about making money, and he's making plenty of it.

exactly.
I quite don't get this "blame the rakebackers" attitutude.

It's like any kind of business: you have earnings and you have profits.
The amount of costs the business face determines the profits once deducted from the earnings.

The higer the costs, the lower the profits. And viceversa. Plain and simple.

Poker is his job. The guy put all his time and dedication into his biggest project of the year and made it a huge success. How is that nothing to be proud of?

I know it depends on the stakes you play, but what kind of total rake is a player paying when they hit this level and what is their rakeback amount? Obviously it can be a broad range based on many things, but has any high level grinder shared this kind of info?

the only thing better than seeing my friend accomplish this is seeing the NVGtards getting jealous - that's what really solidifies the achievement.

love how low-key this was. <3

Here's some fuel for the haters that want to lump all high-volume players into one category. Directly referring to Mecastyles/Quadchrazs: "Online poker players of this ilk (such as the mass multitablers who reach Supernova Elite in 60 days) are the poker version of Extreme Couponers."
