although i was completely wrong at least i wasnt just pulling numbers out of my ass... oh wait, i was. crap.

I think it would be reasonable to assume that Daniel has been playing at least 400-800 for the last five years, so I'm going to use this figure for the sake of argument. Say he plays 40 hours a week, 52 weeks a year, for a total of 2080 hours of play. It would be safe to assume that Daniel would make at least 3 BB/hr, which would be 2400 dollars. Thus, in one year, before taxes, Daniel would make 4,992,000. 4,992,000 multiplied by 5 equals 24,960,000. Now with taxes and other expenses I'm sure you could cut that total in half, but considering the fact that he's made in excess of 6,000,000 in

I scooped a pot off Andy Bloch in PL Hi/Lo... it was a 40 dollar pot, but still, it was cool.

I'm pretty sure that the 'prize pool' for jeopardy has changed and they now pay everyone the dollar amount that they have at the end of the show, and only the winner gets to return and win more money. They give anyone in the red some crap consolation prize like a toothbrush or something, but I'm not positive, so really don't pay any attention to what I just said.

As far as NL and sometimes PL play goes, I feel that the BB is less important than the amount of money you are sitting down with in relation to the size of your bankroll. I've decided after quite a bit of play that I am most comfortable sitting down with about 5 to around 8 percent of my bankroll at one time. That way my decision making isn't clouded by the money in the pot, seeing as it is relatively small in relation to my bankroll, and my bankroll can handle the volatile nature of NL/PL poker.Just my two cents. I'm sure I'm an idiot.

First off, it is highly unlikely to turn 10 dollars into 10,000 over a short period of time without breaking basic rules of money management. Secondly, even if you did manage to somehow defy all odds and make 10,000 dollars before the WSOP Main Event, why on earth would you want to blow that 10,000 that you worked so hard and got so lucky for on a 2,500 to 1 (well probably worse this year) shot?
