    So I started playing again on a regular basis. Started at the 1.10 45 man turbos on stars and am currently at the 3.25s. I kept seeing this guy Zornh0lio (0 is a number not the letter) at a ton of my tables. I decided to look him up and saw that he frequently is playing 20+ tables at a time. This wasn't that big of a deal to me, but it seemed like he was always on when I was. After looking at his OPR, I saw that he has ran over 14,000 45 man turbos in last 120 days. Is this for real?? I mean, are any of you guys, or your friends actually playing this sort of volume? I thought Boku was doing crazy shit, but this guy has played almost 3 times as many games over the last 4 months. Just curious if it's possible to put in this volume, and if so, what your life is like. Seems like he's -EV right now but maybe he's just shooting for SN or SNE? Any ideas?

    Not that hard putting in a full schedule of 45's, esp if he's mixing in 18s etc. You sure you filtered it right?

    But still, not that hard if he's playing 40 hours a week.

    Ask the dude who plays 1,000 1.10 double or nothings a day.

    Ya, I guess your right. Looks like all he plays are the 45 mans plus some 180s occasionally. Just seems like a crazy grind playing 20+ tables at a time for 40 hours a week. Maybe I'll try it next week and see where it gets me. (On a side note, he looks to be at -1% roi over 15,000 sample size.)

    He's not at 1.10s that I'm aware. I just see him playing 3.25s, 6.50s and 13s.

    If he is going for a VIP level he will most likely make SN. I think I calculated it out properly and found that he has to play 73000 3.25 to make SN (5.5 VPP/$).

    So,

    100000/5.5 ~= 18200*4 ~= 73000.

    I think I did the math right but I could be off.

    I don't understand how you can have the will to play 14,000 45-man turbos at a 0% ROI.

    This

    Thanks for all the responses. Also, since he's only playing some 3.25s and mixing in 6.50s and 13s, he prob can get past SN quicker than the math above indicates.

    I see him in just about every 12x45 I play. He has an avatar of an old wwe wrestler IRS

    for a grinder I dont think he is that good.

    I know plenty of people that put in over 100 sngs at higher levels than this.. Not that hard if you are 24 tabling them to do in a few hours a day.. If you treat it like your job anyway.. I can't 24 table, so for me its a different story.. I'd also rather clean dog shit than playing $1 sngs.. Who knows though, maybe he has some kind of prop bet going or is working on his multitabling before he moves up..

    This guy used to reg 27s and I think 60s, back when I used to. I always thought he had a lot of leaks (pushed too wide if thats possible and definitely called WAY light.) Still it shocks me you are seeing him at the 3s. I would have thought he would crush those.

    He always seemed nitty to me and I know a few 45 grinders who say out of any he reg. he is by far the biggest nit. I actually played a 45 the other day where he folded for two orbits and finally shoved with 2.5bbs. That said, I always thought his game to be decent. I'm like you in the sense that I'm surprised he isn't beating the 3s

    I suppose he might have gotten gunshy getting it shoved down his throat at the higher levels so he might have over corrected I suppose. Or maybe I just got the wrong read from a few hands that I blew out of proportion. He used to snap me with any suited J for 6+ BBs anywhere from the CO off if he was in either blind.

    He may be beating the $3s but his OPR says ABI $9.26 and he's -1% so he must be playing mainly $6s and $12s and just losing there. I would think (from what I've seen) that any half way competent player can have +ROI @ the $3s. At least that's what I'm hoping :)

    Yea I've played with him in a ton of $6.50 45er games. He was fairly solid and seemed decent, I got sick of always seeing his avatar on everytable. But he seemed decent and played ABC.
