cejeh stfu.
who the fuck are you to tell people what they can write about?
he is a high stakes player and nobody knows who he is, and since this is a poker discussion, it is appropriate to let people know who he is, based on the stats.
stfu and if you dont like he thread, move on to the next instead of writing 200 words why everyone else is stupid and youre smart.

Accordion-playing fire-breather turned circus icon, Laliberté founded Cirque du Soleil in 1984 with a gang of street performing friends. Initially funded by the Canadian government, the Montreal-based circus, which has no animals, no speaking and no star performers, became a for-profit group in 1985. Laliberté eventually bought out his majority partner in 2000. Hit the jackpot in 1991 when Steve Wynn brought Cirque to Las Vegas. Today the $550 million (revenues) group has four permanent shows in Sin City, including the $165 million "Ka," which opened in February 2005 at MGM Grand. Produces a total of ten shows, with another three on the way. Next show in Vegas: Beatles-themed production at the Mirage; show will replace Siegfried & Roy. Known for lavish parties, Laliberté, who dreams of one day traveling into space, owns 95% of the company.

FWIW ....Elmaria do have a similar style then the other accounts guy played under....Elmaria sits down tables fill up with huge waitinglist just as when 1 of the other accounts of guy are playing...Elmaria go broke and 10 minutes later the account is filled up just like when the other accounts of guy did run out of money.(means other pro's borow him money)Elmaria lose at the same rate like the accounts Guy used to play...Is there any doubt that Elmaria is GUY i dont think so...O and he from brasil last time i checked we all can change the country name to brasil so that 0 prove he isnt GUy.The reason why he have new account and the brasil thing is ofcourse because he do want a certain level of anonymity but due to his skills( compared to the worldtop) his results will expose him anyway even over a small samplesize.I agree there many rich people in this world but not many are giving away free money like Guy do and i always laugh when somebody say 1mil$ is pocketchance for Guy believe me it isnt.I just dont understand how a smart guy like this can act so stupid.....The day i go sit in a pokergame and the waitinglist becomes instant full.....and when i stop playing the game just stops i promisse i just quit playing poker forever.

If Guy is a billionaire, can you explain to me in a mathematical sense how 1M is not pocket change to him?

Nice username sir...No need to explain that to you i am sure you not gone agree anyway.

I'm sure that you have absolutely no idea how to explain it to me, and have absolutely no way of mathematically making an argument that 1M is not pocket change to a billionaire in a relative sense...but alright.

Guy is better at cash games than over 90% of the people that post on this site. It just so happens he loves the challenge of playing the best in the world. No need to publicly bash him especially when u have no definitive proof that this elmariachimacho account is his.
comparing him to avg pd poster is lol, i guess that makes him a midget among dwarves
i doubt he could beat higher than 1/2 online
