I realy wish I could play those limits! But 660k with NL Hold'em? Where does he play then? On partypoker max blinds are $25/$50. Will be hard to make 660k there in a day! Prolly Pacific?

Those big games are mostly on Full Tilt. Ivey has some special HU-Tables there. And some of the other really high stakes players play there too.

Have you guys heard of Archie Karas who got his bankroll to 40million in 3 years. Lost half of it in like 10 days and than lost the other half gambling.

Its kind of sick if you think about. For every 1 mill profit someone else loses 1 mill. Theese guys usually plays HU. Hopefully they have the bankroll to cover their loses. I would feel kind of crappy waking up after hard nites drinking finding out i lost a mill on drunk poker
one of the best 
one milion in one day is incredible but not for Phil
