Playing the Flash has always been fun and finally winning it just feels amazing! The key hand yesterday was on the final table – I had KK vs 99 and he hit his set on the flop while I rivered the Kx to take it down. No real poker plans for the future- play when I can as it’s not a career choice… yet.”
