+1 with $50k on the line he cant afford not to. The wildcard in this whole thing is how far WSOP sets him back.

Put your glasses on, old man - I did that a long time ago ("Progress Thread" in OP). It's not much of a "rail thread," but he posts quick updates and/or updates the first post with his VPP numbers once or twice per week. When I happen to spot them, I copy and paste them here...
And I see he updated a few hours ago: 1/2 7017 vpps 1/5 15619 vpps 1/8 26318 VPPS 1/10 33559 vpps 1/11 36921 vpps 1/17 53941 vpps 1/19 60982 vpps |

at the conclusion of
1/2 7017 vpps 1/5 15619 vpps 1/8 26318 VPPS 1/10 33559 vpps 1/11 36921 vpps 1/17 53941 vpps 1/19 60982 vpps 1/25 78395 vpps 1/29 85800 vpps And also: He's still ahead of pace, but certainly not tons. |

Brutal.
Also, I shipped JD's $. I didn't really like that $5k sitting in my account all year, honestly. I always needed to remember that it was there and wasn't to be touched. |

Insane
I had forgotten about this. I can't imagine he had a very fulfilling year, but I’ve got to hand to him for determination. Hopefully he uses the money to recharge his batteries and do something – anything -- other than just jump up in stakes.
I count myself fortunate that I didn't have it together to take any action on this, because I would have bet big against him. Even reading the thread and following it all play out, it is still hard to believe he could do this.

son of a bitch, saw this thread and really thought I had 10k coming my way that totally forgot about.
being results oriented, it seems really dumb to have bet against a guy making all his own rules and restrictions. I mean we're basically betting that he thinks he can play way more than he actually can. How should we know?

He lost around $90k playing $200 NL, won around $60-65k from this prop bet, and had another $130k (can't remember - might have been more) or so in bonuses along the way for making SNE.

Actually, the people betting against him made 90% of the rules, and I still think this was an incredibly tough bet for him. It came down to the wire, and he admitted to considering quitting at least a couple of times. Clearly it wasn't a sure thing for us, but I still think it was a good bet.

I thought he wouldn't play that many cash game hands given he could only play three days of the week at them. Then he plays 2 million hands, which I couldn't do even in my most insane driven points of career. Got to congratulate him in the end.
