I think it's the same guy who does Kim Jong-Il.

MOM! That is sooooo cool. The family that pays together, stays together. Please tell Bill that I've been getting AIM messages all day long saying that this sweat thread is amazing because he seems to have come out of nowhere. Little do they know...

OK, so my kids aren't old enough to play poker, but this still merits a hello from one Mom to another. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Does Matt have a 2+2 posting ID, cause if he does, we need to add his cash in event 10 to the WSOP finishes thread.

Bill has obviously got something going with two bracelets so far. I'd be very interested to hear any comments from his opponents on his playing style.

Congrats Nath on your big cash!

Re: ***Official Bill Chen sweat thread***
 

Hey guys thanks for sweating me! BTW we do have a blog www.livejournal.com/~billandmatt

But yeah two bracelets is really a bit much! Anyway I will be busy until the end of the WSOP, hopefully!
