enjoyed the read

do all you guys remember hands as well as he did? my god, if I'm in a tournament, I might remember half a dozen big ones, but not nearly as many as he did. That said, I've never played anything near hte size of the WSOPME so who knows.

thread delivers

If you make notes when you are out of a hand, or during breaks, it makes it much easier.

Just saw this thread when it got bumped.... on my to-read list.

Worthwhile to mention that the hot-pink UB.net button up is just about the worst thing i have ever seen in like, every way.

Skimmed a lot of the posts, but enjoyed the read. Who was JS and JT at your Day 1 table?

I look forward to the sequel.

The wife and I will be in Vegas July 6-10 and I'd be pleased to include you and your wife in my TR (assuming, of course, that you'll be in town during those dates). Let me know if you're interested in joining us for some frivolity.

Can't believe I didn't see this TR until two days ago. Spent probably 2-3 hours at work reading when I should have been working. Great stuff TLC and may you run good this summer.

+1

Although I replace the word 'working' with 'napping'.

@leodoc - Is it even allowed to crossover TR's? That may actually blow peoples minds! As much fun as that sounds, and I very much appreciate the offer, I think we'll probably be gone by then. The only way I'm playing the Main this year is if I satty in over the next couple of weeks or bink a good one. That being said, if either of those things happen...we would love to join you and your wife for an adventure! I'll PM you if this is possible.

@pokerja - I would really prefer to keep those guys anonymous. Both are still prominent players and I'd rather not piss them off in case I ever run into them again.

I did realize this morning that my worst nightmare is to play in the main (never have) and get into Day 3 and then lose all my chips on a two-outer. If I can't handle that as well as OP did, then I shouldn't plunk down $10k ever.
