I'll be sweating you in a few minutes when the final two tables start. Best of luck, and if you win make sure to scream 2+2=4 at least 400 times.

Thanks y'all for the sweat. Quite a ride.

You will get a kick out of this. I haven't worked at a casino since May of 2005. I was a prop player in Cripple Creek, CO for a couple of months, and my licence is a 2 year one. They let me play because it was still current. The field was pretty poor. I made a ton of moves that I wouldn't have been able to do otherwise and ran like God in general. I was 100% W$SD day one, but in the last 8 hours or so I only hit 3 flops. I couldn't really catch a break, but was able to pick up enough pots to keep the lead for most of the time. Chris ran incredibly sick and took it down - good for him. I have a funny feeling the requirements to enter will be slightly stricter next year...

Do it again tomorrow? hehe.

Re: *Official* Event #1: NLHE Casino Employee Sweat
 

So do I have this straight? You're no longer a casino employee but you entered and cashed in the Casino Employee event anyway? I don't "get a kick out of" that information, but I sure wonder what the other finalists think of it....
