  17. isnt this technically his first wsop event ever? if so thats just fucking insane.
  18. Yeah it is... the dude is sick. The announcers are ripping him apart to look at my post. Ridiculous.
  19. That's insane, they just said this event will be airing on July 10th. Now if WPT can make that type of turnaround time, I can get my Waco fix earlier.
