sebastien182 0 Posted October 20, 2008 Share Posted October 20, 2008 Hey folks,Firstly, greetings to everyone ! This is my first post on these boards. I'm a poker VT member and like a lot of you rail the nosebleed stakes players on full tilt poker. I just came across this article about pro player Ziggmund (spelling?). Can someone please confirm the following.1/ Did he really have a million bucks stack online ? Or is the screenshot edited ? It seems crazy !2/ Is Ziggy an alcoholic in real life?Cheers,--SPS: the source is here => Ilari Sahamies (Note: there is a vid of him taking tequila shots, hence my question 2) Link to post Share on other sites
Lrgetrout 1 Posted October 20, 2008 Share Posted October 20, 2008 1/ Did he really have a million bucks stack online ? Or is the screenshot edited ? It seems crazy !Quite likely, real. I don't find a player playing 200/400+ having a million dollars hard to believe at all.2/ Is Ziggy an alcoholic in real life?I've got three choices for you here:1) None of your damn business.2) Stay away from the new topic button.3) Stop being an idiot.Feel free to take any or all of these as answers to this.

I think the training site is still young though. I'm mainly using leggopoker right now to focus on my heads up and shorthanded game . I like to play deepstacked (200 blinds +) so Daniel's small ball strategy is interesting. I like Daniel's commentary in his heads-up sit and gos.Including his min raises heads up !

I agree it's none of my business though.don't worry.. this is just the usual the noobies get when they post for the first time.. your apparently expect to lurk forever.. then only reply already created threads.. THEN, when you have 1000+ posts then you may make a thread, flame-free..its a weird place, FCP... but eventually you learn to love it don't take the first few rude clownish comments to heart, they die down eventually Link to post Share on other sites

Sheiky 0 Posted October 20, 2008 Share Posted October 20, 2008 He had a 1 mil stack on rail heaven 500/1k a few weeks ago, he's not the first person to do it in a big bet game on Full Tilt either. I'm not certain, but I think Benyamine was the first to do it. Link to post Share on other sites
Mercury69 3 Posted October 20, 2008 Share Posted October 20, 2008 Although his response was a touch douchey, Largtrout is only one of quite a few, regulars included, who post douchey reponses. Just sayin' Link to post Share on other sites
