Why?

because i reckon it would open up more doors

Ahh, my bad.

I originally thought you meant you'd buy the bracelet for that money, which didn't make sense.

I now get that you'd rather have won 100K less and won a WSOP title/bracelet, which makes perfect sense.

finishing up tomorrow, any last questions let's here them.

1. Do many people in Galway recognise you(general public)?

2. Do you play strictly Holdem tourneys?

3. Do you play any high stakes SnG's?

4. What would have happened if the power went down on the final table of the scoop? do you have back-up?

5. Do you think you could make a living if you switched to cash?

thanks

Do you pay yourself a wage or take a % of bankroll each week/month?

just a few questions if you dont mind:

1. Do you still satellite into most of the larger buy in events? And if so, if you fail to would you just buy in anyway? Say for eg the 10k event in the WCOOP...

2. Do you think as time goes by it will be harder to win as players in general get better?

3. Do you have any plans to 'diversify' into other games, say PLO, if they become big MTT games?


Thanks!
