Meet Nick S.

So yesterday at the a tourney I met someone named Nick S. his last name was some long name I can't remember. Anyway, he has been serious about Hold'em for 5 years now, even got a degree in pysch. He moved out to vegas with 3k and started gambling. Thinks were going ok, he was running late to a tourney and missed it so he found that it was only $333 for a satalite for the WSOP. He gave it a shot and won, then he sold the seat for $10,200. He played it again (34 people) and won again, so he sold that seat as well. He decide he would play more and if he wins again he would go and play the 2008 WSOP. So third satalite he just missed it and didn't win, was very close. So he played a fourth, then a fifth, and finally winning his 3rd time on the sixth.

He went back and slept for 3 hours and came back to play in WSOP, he played very tight on day 1, day 2 he sat with a maniac and watched this guy just run over people by playing reckless, so day 3 he decided to do the same thing, then day 4 he continued playing that way, finally day 5 he started tighting back up. Well he did very well and ended up in 13th place they started out with around 6.5k people. He took in $436k. Pretty crazy meeing someone like that at a free tourney...he even told Holliday in the middle of the hand...man you gonna play your kings that way? He had a pocket pair of Kings..lol.

Also in the tourney grats to Holliday for 5th place, Nick placed 3rd. I went all in with AKo vs Ad Qd Flop hit rainbow A 10 J dealer says you sure you don't want a Q I said ok I'll take a Q, so next card, BAM Q I hit my straight. Dealer said now you don't want a Queen do you, well BAM Q again, Villian hits a full boat..tough way to go out. Final Hero: AK, Villian: AQ, Board A 10 J Q Q. Rachel went out on Ac7c and board was 2 clubs, went all in and missed the flush against 2 pair.
