    i do remember there being cheating allegations with xblink, because A) he plays on UB and B) he makes some weird plays. a lot of people thought he was a fish on a massive heater, that he was the statistic freak outlier of going from $11 to 7 figures. not sure what the assessment is now.

    My question is, can anyone verify that he actually made this much money in that amount of time?

    I met him in London last week and owned him at credit card roulette a couple times. Supposedly the story about him building (or at least rebuilding) his roll from almost nothing is true. I remember when he was first on his sick run (I caught wind of it when he was playing 25-50 NL I think) and everyone thought he was a fish on a heater at first but it's pretty obvious by now he's ridiculously good, particularly at HU.

    PTR isn't 100% or anything but it's fairly accurate.

    you have 4300 posts on an online poker forum and still don't know about tracking sites like PTR? This story is pretty old and you can read about it on 2p2. The thread also has responses and comments by xblink himself about his run.
