    Very impressive, congrats! How did the rest of FTR get on at the WSOP?

    Nice! 138th outta 6600 .... that's quite the accomplishment.

    Did you manage to get the FTR logo shown on TV?

    When you busted Barry did you give him the "I pwned you" victory salute?

    Grats man. Very good showing - at your age you've gotta be happy with the result. Next year you'll build on it and I'm sure do even better. G1

    Well Done - Some achievement - was this your first year in the WSOP main event?

    Nice touch by Barry Greenstein.

    You sir, rock.

    Being at the WSOP ME is something most of us will never do, and you owned most of the field.

    We're not worthy...

    I'm sure he was wreaking havoc on the players once he got a stack going, the guy will bluff to the last card if he thinks he can.
