I gotta tell someone -- I made it to the WSOP

[magithighs]

Yup, reloadthis is Layne (as far as I've read -- he also confirmed that last night).

When I got down to the last two tables I had him two seats to my right and two very big stacks on either side of me. Stealing blinds was incredibly difficult! I stayed out of his way for the most part but I did fire back one time with Queens and he laid down pre-flop. Thankfully he was moved to the other table and I was able to operate more freely. I don't think I would have made it if he stayed at my table, as I had to scrape by and hang in by blind stealing and playing back hard.

Good luck next week if you try again.

Yeah it is, unless he was using someone else's account the single time I've seen him log on.

congrats! maybe we will chop it. I'll probably wear my pstars jacket with "dirtrancher" embroidered on the front. say hi if you feel like it.

[magithighs]

I'd love to be in a position to chop with you. Would be way cool to have two of us from here! I'll try and look you up, as it would be nice to meet someone from here in person.

Congrats on your entry as well. Have you been in it before? Wouldn't mind a few tips when we're there.

Cheers

Good Luck in the WSOP.

Maybe I will be able to brag to my friends that I played with the champion.

Congrats...What were the details of your qualifying?Did you use FPP or was it a cash entry ? Did you qualify in a satellite 1st? How many were in the tournament and how many qualified to play in the WSOP?... Good luck and keep us informed...

[magithighs]

Thanks PB! Was hoping I could catch your attention at some point on these boards.

BTW, thanks for pointing out Tommy's site as I read through his stories and found some inspiration there. The parallel parking story was my favourite and helped me think through risk tolerance and how it applies to the game. It was a great help. I suppose I should send Tommy a thank you -- problem is I have a business idea I want to propose but wasn't sure about the timing. So, I'll hold off until after the tourney. But in the interim -- Thanks for the site Tommy!

My main goal is to play good and really enjoy the ride. Is that what LGPG means -- live good, play good?
