Up or under anyone?

congrats!

Hell yeah!

I've been gone all day, and dying to know what's been happening. I almost checked the web at my girlfriend's house, but we were doing other things.

Now I get home and find out you took it down! Way to go man! It's been such a blast rooting for you and watching you ascend the ladder. once I saw your name on the chipleader spot on like day 2, I had a feeling it might go all the way.

I can't wait to read all about it. hopefully here on the boards, as well as in book form.

and remember, tell 'em that you learned everything you know from reading Hellmuth's book...

I think everyone here agrees that it has been amazing to follow Greg's performance all week. I just wonder if the other players had any idea what they were in for.

I can't wait to look for the huge chip stack at the Big NL game at Foxwoods next time I go. I hear that place has good chicken fingers.

Hi Everyone:

We at Two Plus Two think that Greg's win is absolutely great not only for Greg but for all of poker. He should be a great ambassador for the game for years to come.

best wishes,
mason

What a great job Greg. You got lucky in spots where you needed to but you played absolutely amazing for six long days. Congratulations.

Yes, definitly, the most amazing thing to me, is that the early chip leaders NEVER win...yet you took it to the end. You must of busted out 50 people single handendly. Well done!

I cant imagine what you were feeling as you played...thinking "I am here, at the final table, of the WSOP" and then thinking "I could win this" and finally "I won this!" Its exciting for me, and I dont even know you, I cant imagine your enjoyment.

Best Regards

Wow. I'm just a newbie, especially to NL, but...wow. It's not even that you won, it's leading wire to wire that stuns me. That was some amazing poker and I'll be incredibly interested to see it in September.

Congratulations and good luck in your newfound poker pro career [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
