Default Brag: Barry Greenstein shook my hand

What it do BBV?

I'm going to register for the $10k event at Foxwoods, in cash (BRAG #1) and there is one person in line. It's none other than Barry Greeinstein.

The security guard says "Are you here to register for the poker tournaments?" I said yes and he continued, "Ok well get in line right here behind this gentlemen?"

"Oh, you mean right behind Barry?" I responded.

Brag #2 Barry smirked.

Once I finished walking through the maze and was right behind him in line he turned around and smiled and stuck his hand out to shake mine and ask me how I was doing. (Brag #3, 4, and 5).

Variance: He was registering, 27 minutes late, for today's $3k event.

Variance (for me, beat for Barry): some noob from a 4/8 LHE table like sprinted over to meet Barry.

Brag: I acted cool like I wasn't wicked impressed.

Beat: It's Barry Greenstein, he could totally tell I was.
