max won his first wsop bracelet in event 33 taking home $440k. he is also going strong in event 53, sitting in the middle of the pack with 28 players left and 1st place paying over $700k. day 3 starts today so gl to him there!

ftr will be interviewing max later this week - what would you like to ask him? the questions don't have to be related to the wsop, it can be about his poker career, or just general questions.
