Brad “yukonbrad” Booth lost his Full Tilt Poker Red Pro status just recently and now he speaks about the big online games.
Booth begins his blog estimating how big bankroll you should have on the recent nosebleed games people have been playing on Full Tilt Poker. His estimation is roughly 30-50 million dollars and he can think of only one person who has this kind of money. (Phil Ivey? -Editorial note)
He ponders the reasons why many top pro is willing to play these kind of games with inadequate bankroll. Why would they take this kind of huge risk? Do they think they have that big edge over other players or is it only some “clash of the egos”. Don’t they respect the value of money?
Booth believes that the above is true for most of the nosebleed players. He also predicts that one or more nosebleed pro will go broke if the games continue like this.
Booth uses Tom “durrrr” Dwan as an example: Dwan lost over half of his online winnings to Isildur1 in a short period and now Dwan needs to grind his bankroll up from the smaller games.
Even though durrrr’s games have gone well in the smaller games, Booth thinks that the winning can be a lot harder for him now as Dwan is a very known player and many players knows his playstyle and moves.
