Back to back cash

Back-to-back cash! Three days = record, record, record

Sunday I cashed in the Pot Limit Omaha (record 64th cash), and then final tabled (record 40th final table). Monday we played the final table. Tuesday I played the $1,500 buy in no limit Hold'em today, and I cashed again (record 65th cash)! Now, can I do the really nasty deed and final table Wednesday (record 41st final table)? Then if I win on Thursday (record 12 bracelets), it would be five records in five days!!

On Monday night my wife flew home, and I went over to Mike "The mouth" Matusow's house for a late dinner. His girlfriend is great, and I like chilling with them. By midnight we were all passed out-no, we didn't even have one drink. The WSOP is non-stop, and we were all super tired. On Tuesday night (Wednesday at 1:30 am) after I made the money, I wrote my USA Today article in the VIP suite (1,000 words), and I wrote my regular column (900 words) as well. Most guys would head home, eat, and then sleep, but not me baby! That's why I get the big bucks! Of course, I wish I could simply focus on poker, and go get some sleep like everyone else, but I have responsibilities. FYI - I may have been all in only one time this tournament so far, maybe zero times…Now it is 5:00 am, and I'm sending this out, then going right to bed! Last week it may have hurt me to write my article after making it until 2:00 am in a tournament, but this week I'm zoned in. I know what to do to final table, and I know what to do to win. Yes, I need average luck to make it, depending on my table, but I may be able to make it with below average luck. In any case, some good luck would be great, and some great luck would be amazing!
