Week-long prop bet - Page 8 - Poker Beats Brags and Variance

All --

My account is at $676. I also have my equity in 8 SNGs.

Also, someone asked about TLB points. I have 1892.24 since the 14th, if that's any sort of important measure. I'm aware that I can only count my best X toward the various leaderboards, but I've never really paid attention to the whole process, so I don't know much more.

I'd say you win this bet about 85% of the time from this point forward.

Haha that guy is such a clown. I was playing a $6/45 turbo one time and he claimed that he never got it in behind during the whole thing and he even tried to berate me for pushing AJ with 6bbs at the final table.

The fact that I've spent so much time learning these games makes it much funnier when you learn the rules and are immediately better than I am.

BUMP TO HIGHLIGHT HOW AWESOME I AM AT POKER!!!

Also, just saw your location: CAN WE REFERENCE PEGASIZING MORE LEGITIMATELY THAN WE CAN REFERENCE PEGASUS?!? I DOUBT IT! DEFINE PEGASIZING WITHOUT USING PEGASUS!

Good luck Nate, I have been lurking for some time and followed this post since it began. I took a break from cash games today and decided to try those multi-table SNGs. I was playing with you for until the FT of one where I went out 9th. Beat: Nate took half my stack with AKo against my AQ of spades. I think thats the only time I tangled with you. Good luck the rest of the way. Hope you used my chips well.

I hope I did this right, since this is my first post.

I'm running terribly. Some chance I'll be making this a super-marathon session.

On the plus side, unless this gets really dizzyingly bad, I'll at least have enough to do a $530 HU. So there's that.

Yea I just saw you bubble a few.. try playing some $1/$2 6 max limit.. I've just started tryin this out and it seems ridiculously easy. I don't know if I'm running hot or what but the players there are really really really bad. Maybe a change in games will help.

All advice is appreciated, but I'm pretty sure this is no time for me to play limit hold'em, especially because I'm probably at least slightly removed from my A game.

Thanks. 16-buyin downswing...

I can't root against nate because we're friends, but I think it would be a lot more amusing if the rail became heavily anti-Nate. Plus, he's a huge favorite now, root for the underdog.

I was quoting my total accumulated. Only the top... 10, I think, count toward the leaderboard.

Down to 875, but doing well/OK in some of these SNGs.
