@chicagocards1 told me before #WPTParis final table started, "3rd time's a charm" (3rd WPT final table). He was right. CONGRATULATIONS!
“@dalaei: @SavagePoker when is the @WPT_Alpha8 PLO event? Will be a success. Bet I can get you at least 20 entries #newplayers" Great idea!
TONIGHT in Paris - party time! Disco themed WPT VIP Players party (11:30 pm at Queen Night Club). It's Saturday Night Fever at #WPTParis ??
“@msalsberg: Bagged 212k. Think I'm chip leader. Qui." Stu Ungar said to me "Anybody can win a tourn. Defending, that's where it's at!" GL!
In Paris: having a night of laughs with @padraig888 & watching the NFL - what could be better?
@OhioState_MGYM Wish I was in town on Sat for the Buckeye gymnastic reunion (there in spirit). See you at Winter Cup in Vegas. #GoBucks

Just think: @RealKidPoker has $19.5m in career earnings (2nd all-time) w/out making a WSOP ME (US) or ONE DROP final table. #veryimpressive
@RealKidPoker: Congrat's on WSOP POY (& 6th bracelet)! You turn 40 next yr? I don't think there will be any controversy on 1 PHOF inductee.
In Paris now. WPT at Aviation Club starts tomorrow at 2:30 pm (Oct 25). It's 7500 Euro buy-in. Place is packed, lots of action! #WPTParis
@slope89. Isai didn't start the EPT (John Duthie did), he just bought it. But Pokerstars has done a lot for poker (online & w/other tours).
“@slope89: what about isai scheinberg?" Certainly deserves consideration - but remember the EPT was started because of the success of WPT.
If HOF is about "Who's done most for poker", no one on the planet (w/exception of Binion's) has done more than Steve Lipscomb (WPT Founder).
“@ShaneSchleger: If HOF is about $$ made at poker, I could give you names that would dwarf anyone you know, starting w/Bev Hills billionaire
@TexDolly High stakes cash players known in very small world - & like it or not, most future HOF'ers are going to have strong tourn results
@TexDolly - guys you named are great players but don't play many tourn's & because the public nominates them, they don't get on the ballot.

“@DougLeePoker: according to his crew, it wasn't a true story at all http://t.co/fH6evHduBT” I didn't know any of that - just believed movie

“@AAMagicManAA: That is a ridiculous opinion Mike.. you would rather have the integrity of the game comprimised” Just the opposite is true.
