Hahahah he’s been crushing. Gonna be neck and neck for POY between him and Benny glaser

Very early on this WSOP, someone took a pic of their table and it had Martin and Maurice Hawkins sitting directly next to each other. I think I’d go jump off the Eiffel Tower replica at Paris if that were my table. Not sure noise canceling headphones would be enough

This guy is a dead beat along with being a douche. I once played a circuit event at Harrahs. This must’ve been 15 years ago. It was early in the tournament and we were at the same table. We’ve must been 2-3 seats apart but he kept going on and on about how great he is. I just shook my head saying whatever man. At the end of the exchange, he reached over to me and left his card on my railing area. I casually, grabbed it and flicked it on the floor:

We had a 50 person tournament for a couple months. Winner got a seat plus airfare hotel. I got lucky and won. Placed 224th. Won about 60K. Winner of our local tournament agreed to split any winning 50/50. I kept half. The other half was split with the other 49

224th is about 5 or 6 12 hours days of poker. It's a brutal grind.
