Some of the “achievements” listed in that tab could be earned by someone who simply played a shit-ton and lost money. But not the “in profit over 5000 tournaments” (the ace of spades there if you hover your mouse over it). And it would be unlikely a bad player could achieve “cashed in five consecutive scheduled tournaments” (eight of diamonds) or “won 5 consecutive SNG tournaments” (queen of diamonds). I have not been able to play for money since they shut down real money play for U.S. players a decade ago, but I still play for fun (play money) and anyone who wants to challenge me to a HU (one-on-one) match, LMK and I’ll show you how it’s done.
