There was one tournament, I think the friday special, where Shawn Rice was to your left, and I was to his left, and every time it was your button you just shoved... I guess cause you knew hte both of us were restealing psychos.

Shawn Rice told me: "Pokerstud you raise every hand." Then I told him he was weak tight. I was cracking up.

I had about 90k in chips and was working you guys over hard. Getting played back at sucks at certain points with large blinds. Shawn had around 20k and I am not sure about you. Except: I busted out right in the money coinflipping for a huge stack. Shawn finished 4th for 10k+ - he is the true professional. How did you do?

1st out of 141 in 200$ wpt super on FT for 10K seat and 2k cash
Next day 1st in FT 50$ MTT for 2200 (small field)
4th out of 149 foxoods LHE monday night event for 1k and followed by a 8th out of 150 in the NLH the next morning for 280, not big $ cashes, but it was a fun run since I went from the LHE final table at 1am and played cash all night before starting the NL event at 8am....
