Those were the best days. I was a total baller on the playchip circuit too, it got to be pretty crazy. People were recognizing me on the street, asking for autographs, taking photos with me... I loved it at first but the constant stream of broke, begging degens and daily phonecalls from Mike Matusow asking if I wanted to hang out sometime got too much, so I cashed out and bought a neat LEGO construction kit with my winnings.

I had 40 million on Full Tilt, after 8 months of "grinding" the play money tables. Then I started playing real money tables, so I flipped for it and lost it all (happily).

I found out later that I could have traded it for $400 real money. I don't know what tilts me more: the fact that I wasted a year at the play money tables, or that I threw away $400.

lol... i've got somewhere over 13,000,000 on pokerstars. at one point, i was just seeing how much i could make for fun. if you really, really, really want to see people gets pissed off, sit down at a 40K PLO8 and start raising pre-flop. Never mind that you fold most of the time pre-flop -- you're an IDIOT WHO'S WRECKING THE GAME by forcing the WHOLE table to pay more for a flop. i once gave an idiot 2,000,000 in chips if he just shut up and let me play.

fun times.

you know, some people play solitaire on their PC's, i've heard...

^ if you have a massive stack of play chips you don't give a damn about, just sit at a tightish table, minraise every single hand and fold every flop unless you hit the absolute nuts, in which case you push all-in immediately. Type "LOL DONKS" every time the blinds hit you, lie about being a high-stakes pro if anyone calls you a donk and claim to be Howard Lederer if anyone calls you a liar.
