How sick of a run has this guy had in the WCOOP this year? 2nd place in event 3, and 3rd place in the $10k event 5. Cashed for a total of over $390k. I wish I could come close to stringing together a couple tourneys like this

Two nice cashes for sure, but my bankroll couldn't stand the $102k he was in the hole proir to this weekend. Could yours ?

Um, no, but I'm not sure what that has to do with anything. A lot of pro's, live and online, go through periods of time where they are in debt/broke. Just look at Phil Helmuth. He went broke a couple times to my knowledge after he won the main event. Granted, this guy isnt on Phil's level, or on the level of some other online pro's, but he is a great tourney player and certainly had a great run this weekend, and it's still very early in the WCOOP, so he might not be done yet

I wasn't trying to be sarcastic or anything, I just meant after checking his stats and seeing to amount and average buyin this guy plays, he had to get lucky sometime, and you have to admit you need a lot of luck to win a tournament live or online. It will be interesting to see how he does in the other events as you say it's early yet.

maybe play the 5k main event in 2 weeks but id soooo take a break after such crushing back to back near victories.
