Welcome to My World

I was watching Fult Tilt Pokers Million Dollar Cash game the other day with Phil Ivey. He lost a hand where he most likely go sucked out on and he said... "Welcome to my world". I got a little chuckle out of that as he obviously is winning millions and millions of dollars. Of course, I'm sure that he does take his share of bad beats as people play back at him a lot.

Anyway, I had a "welcome to my world" kind of days one day this last weekend. As I am playing, I usually mark hands to go back and review. Here are a dozen hands that I marked to give you a glimpse of my world. happy reading!!!
