Thanks guys!
You would think we were playing for millions. I was hurt by Tatehill2000 twice but got off my knees and knocked him out with a 4 Ace hand.
Of course Roberto came running in claiming I should give the money back..WTF?! I sat in that chair for 5 hours in near heart attack conditions and Berto says give it back?

I have been there and done that. Five hours at the poker table is a grind. You deserve every penny.

Yeah, those tourneys can go forever. I feel for the guys who played great and finished 7th or 8th and out of the money places.
John unleashed a methodical attack at the final table. When I saw him start out there with a few chips, I was just waiting for the the knock out punch so we could go eat. But... one after another he took them down.

Yea give it back to BoDog like they really need it. Nope, I played for the Working Man. They always have their foot on the working man's throat.
