for all those people who are asking what has he done in the past 1 - 1 1/2 years, u may want to check out the cash games in vegas cause he is KILLING there. He hasnt played in many of the tournaments (you can check how many he actually entered in all of the WSOP) because hes busy getting to the side games. as far as this years wsop is concerned... are you saying whoever does best in the WSOP main event is a better player than everyone else for that year?
