Patrick Antonius is used to appear in this list but, fortunately or unfortunately, he isn’t here this time. The best conclusion to take it must be that his balance is equilibrated, which aren’t bad news at all! As for Blom, his statistics must be like the NYSE (New York Stock Exchange) graphs, always up and down… but what are $500K for him? Peanuts!

A $1,100,000 downswing...god dam nasty.
There's so few players that can deal with a hit like that - thats the sort of month that can ruin a player.
Bet that guy is broke - unless you're a mega rich businessman, or a complete pro like Hansen, Antonius etc thats gonna be hellish difficult to manage..

These poker players are not broke they have multimillions in their account, because these players follow strict bankrollmanagement. Otherwise thye would not play at that high level of the poker game.

I don't think you need to look at zypherin and think that he will go busto soon, he is a recreational poker player and has a multi billion dollars fortune
If RaiseOnce is Phil Ivey think he has enough money to reload anytime lol

it's really sad when I can't even hit a million in play money let alone real cash. And, to lose that kind of cash and stick around to play more must be a really nice life or living on the edge is how they take on life.
