The 28 Things I am Most Thankful for in Poker…

Andy Frankenberger keeps on winning tournaments. https://twitter.com/AMFrankenberger Keeping the mystery of tournament poker alive and well.

Will the Thrill also keeps on winning tournaments. https://twitter.com/WILLFAILLA If he can do it anybody can.

Not having any of my own money stuck on FTP. Had it all on PokerStars just by blind luck.

Not having to fly out to vegas for Epic Poker events. Now I only need to go west once a year for the WSOP.

Greg Merson winning the main event of the WSOP and Player of the Year. Such a good kid from the east coast and has always been very well liked by his peers. https://twitter.com/Gregy20723

Hellmuth keeps winning bracelets. https://twitter.com/phil_hellmuth

The only bet I ever made with Erick Lindgren was for a large number. I was on the winning side and was paid in full in a timely manner. Sick Brag! https://twitter.com/EdogPoker

Having a nice piece of Ryan Eriquezzo’s WSOP package and him winning the only event that was not included in the package and not cashing in any event that was. Just Bad Luck! https://twitter.com/RyanEriquezzo

My partnership with Parx Poker Room which gives me a vehicle to help grow the game I love.
