nutzbuster 7 Posted August 6, 2006 Share Posted August 6, 2006 Im still in Vegas and just spent 2 days railing Daniel through all the horrific, gut wrenching ups and downs of the Main event.Not sure what all has been Written so far as I don;t have time to read it all. (The game at the Bellagio is calling).Carol, Steve, Sandy, Carols mother, Patty, Matt, Gov, all the FCP expo folks .... these are all superior individuals and I am a better person for having met them all. I spent the majority of the last 2 days with Carol and Sandy railing Daniel and man, I have to tell you it was lesson for the ages. We were fortunate enough to be able to literally sweat the action within 4 feet of the table for 80% of the time. It is so amazing to watch the reactions live, hand after hand, to see all the play unfold in real time, live. The experience alone worth every dam penny.Daniel fought the decks HARD. I mean HARRRRRRRD for the past 24 hours. It just NEVER seemed to give him a break. SO many sick beats, it was killing us to watch it all, but that has to be nothing campared to how he must feel at the moment.Always the class act, when the final hand fell, tipping his hat to the crowd, pushing past the throngs to get to his payout window, all the while making time for just about anyone who wanted and atuograph or an interview.I'll tell ya what...those are the last things I'd be wanting to do after just getting eliminated, but Daniel just smiled and took the time to make sure everyone had what they needed or wanted. Just absolutley amazing...Yeah, his poker skills are legendary as we all know but he, the way he is as a person, is far more impressive and paramount in my book. It was an amazing 2 days (2 weeks actually). I think I've made some new friends for life and will never forget , not just the way it all played out but the class and dignity exhibited by Daniel through it all, especially at the end.Bravo and congarts to Daniel. The guy is without a doubt numero uno. He deserve a huge round of applause for an amazing job done as well as he could possibly do it. Just so incredible. Link to post Share on other sites

jjdylan 0 Posted August 6, 2006 Share Posted August 6, 2006 i kinda knew it was coming...i was railing daniel on day1 and day 2 when he was at the espn table....he ran so hot at the espn table you just knew it wouldnt last the whole week. but from what i saw he played great, and 229 out of 8700+ is really more than you can realistically hope for in a field that big.
