I get a short mention on the WSOP Main Event part 17! Pretty cool :)
I liked your take on the Lederer 2+2 interview. I was curious how those seriously effected interpreted it.
Damn I was on vacation when this happened, sorry I missed it.
My fondest memory of FTR is probably rooting for Max at a final table a few years ago
5 years ago! Time really does fly.Quote:
