hey all,

just thought you might be interested in someone who played the big one this year. i got back from america this week.

i have been playing since i was about 12, im only 19 now. i love the game, and figured to hell with it, im gonna give it a shot. so i found someone like me, and we went to rio, las vegas and sat down at the biggest tournament in the world.

i played pretty much every day for two months before i left. i thought about the game like 24 hours a day. i believed i could be the best. i still do.

so on june 7, i sat down, and to be honest had to fight the overwhelmed feeling straight away. it was incredible. i mean incredible. every single guy there had like an urgency. every one of them wanted the thing incredibly badly. and it was tough. my first hand came K 7.........so i called to the flop which gave me 3 9 K. so i said to hell and raised half my stack. loads of folds, and two callers. turn card: 7. im confident now, so i go all in. both fold and i win first hand at my table. not a bad omen. little did i know mr. future winner joe hachem was one of the early folders at the very same table.

anyway so much happened, sooo much, that im not gonna describe it all here unless im asked, so feel free.

i came in position 738 out of 5619. im gonna win it or come close next year, and i mean that.

later or lateasever because i always bet big late on.

Id love to read anything you had to say about your expreriences, as would most of the people here I would guess.

Absolutely, I'd say we'd all love to hear about it. Did you play with anyone else well known??

No kidding....

Nice way to play that 1st hand ...

Whats your real name? (How did Antesup.com miss you?) and how did you get past the 21 and over rule? Eoghan O'Dea couldnt play because he wasnt 21 then...

Did you win a ticket online?

You really need a good memory to be a good liar, and considering that you can't even remember that the main event started on July 7, you're not off to a great start.
