Fame and Fortune

I was playing in a Full Tilt Poker tournament on Sunday with Michael Craig and a boat load of other friends of Full Tilt pros. I was running great and transferred over to Andy Bloch's table. I was two seats to his left with five times as many chips as him. This was my chance to knock him out and get a coveted "I knocked out a pro at Full Tilt Poker" t-shirt.

Well, we also had a teeny-tiny snow storm blow through that day. As soon as I was seated at this table I got this:

Disconnected! My dream will have to wait until another day. For more on the tournament, check out Michael's blog:
