ok. gabe, are you a pro poker player? have you won millions playing poker?
have you finished really high in a world famous "donkament"?
have you ever played poker on tv?
which players do you consider to be the best in the world?
phil ivey? chip reese? doyle brunson?
do you respect negreanu and hellmuth as tourney players?
what do you think of allen cunningham?
You cant compare people who won a big event to winning high stakes cash players. Winning a big tourney involves playing decently over a long stretch and a very large amount of luck. Being a winning HS cash game player requires that you bring your A game 24/7 365. There are tourney players that are good at cash games and vice versa, but simply winning a tourney or two with a large field does not imply any competence in the big cash games.
