A Dream Come True

Every summer I've had the chance, since I was 21, I've travelled to Vegas during the WSOP (world series of poker), in hopes of not only going deep a tournament to win some good money, but to achieve every poker players dream of winning a wsop bracelet. I'm still in shock, but this year my dream came true. I won the WSOP event #51. 

I have a lot to talk about, but for some reason my IPad is not cooperating so for now, I just want to say a huge thankyou to everyone who was cheering me on, here in Vegas, and to those watching from home. I've got a ton of support and it means a lot to have everyone to share this special moment with. A special thanks to my fiancée, best friend and poker buddy who has helped me so much along the way! All those nights of forcing me to talk hand histores has paid off. 

I've made it to day 2 of the main event with 70,000 chips, and resume play on Tuesday. For now my focus is on the main, and then it's back home to catch up on SNE.
