I'm seeing 120k in cash game profits for you over the last year and half, very nice. I play mostly at Poker Stars, not sure I want to tangle with you.
Haha sorry I should apologize, those aren't my handles, I don't even have a handle. Those stats are actually my buddies. That's why I don't play online, it's literally impossible to beat regulars if you're just the average joe who deposits a few hundred bucks every now and then.

The regulars, and I mean regulars who have a BB/100 of 2 or higher will 99.9% of the time take all of your money at some point. And from what I've seen just by everyones handle who posted in here, that stands true. He showed me pokertableratings.com where you can type anyone's name and see their history for the last 2 years, says its about 80% accurate.

The moment someone decides to play for the first time, guys like my friend will recognize a new person, and there will literally be a waiting list of regs waiting to bounce on the new guy. He marks all fish he plays against with certain colors, purple ones are the fish. So when he sits down for a 2 hour session (how many hours he works in a day) he looks for all the tables with purple guys and tries to get a spot on their table. He plays 10 tables at once and sees about 700 hundred hands an hour playing 2/4 and 3/6 blinds.

Oh btw, if you dont know what bb/100 means, it means big bets per 100 hands and a big bet is twice the big blind. For 3/6, big bet is 12 dollars. So if your stats show 3.0 for bb/100, thats 3 x 12(big bet) = $36 per 100 hands, He plays around 700 hands an hour, roughly making 36 X 7 = 252 dollars an hour. If you want to see some crazy stats, type in nananoko and see that guys equity curve. Unreal, but apparently though he plays 24 tables at once, for 8 hour periods. Used to be a pro gamer.

Anyways, just some food for thought. Next time you go to play, just think there may be list of like 8 guys waiting to play against you and you not even know it. Vultures I tell you..
