He won't turn $10 into $100,000 in just side games. Can't be done. Jesus turned his money into $10,000 playing other games and multi tables. Daniel must have a big ego to think he won't go broke over and over again at that level to start with.
I wonder what his timetable is and how many times can he go broke?
It's interesting, but won't happen.
Haha... well... let me tell you a story.
I sold 1 million play chips on stars last summer. I started with $10 just the same as him. I have never deposited, and never gone broke. Now I have a few hundred bucks and am only playing 10nl and less but I entirely plan to get up to much higher tables eventually. I have all the time left in my life. I am in no hurry at all.
I just play a much nittier BRM style than his at the micros, and I only play a hundred
hands or so a day so it's gonna take me a lot longer.
(not to mention hes slightly better at poker than me.)
But I don't see how you think beating the cash games (if thats what you mean by side games) isn't possible.
By the time he gets to $5/$10 he will hit his 100k in a matter of days or maybe weeks IMO.
