If there is one area in my poker career that I feel I have underachieved in coming into this year, it would be in Big Live tournaments. I had around $500,000 in winnings this year which is impressive until you consider I had at least $700,000 in buy-ins, if not more.
It seems I turned the corner going on a recent tourney super heater. I got 3rd in the NAPT high-roller for 310k and just finished 2nd in the WPT for 550k.
I recently played on the pokerstars big game: http://thebiggame.pokerstars.net/. For those of you who haven’t seen the episode I was constantly and consistently abused by both Tony G and Daniel Negreanu from the moment I sat down. At the time I did not mind at all to be honest – I was just happy to be in a game with Daniel and Tony G.
I’ve been back in vegas for about 2 weeks ago, after a long stint in Europe. I lived out of the mayfair hotel for 40 days and my average day was:
Wake up at noon. Go to Subway for breakfast. Play online for 6 hours or play a live MTT. Work out. Play online for another 4 hours. Go drinking till 5am. Repeat.
