Hey Vic, congrats on your nice run at the tables. Quick TRUE tourney story. I was playing an earlier round of the World Poker Finals at Foxwoods last fall. During the day, I "harvested" a 25 and 100 NCV chip. I went on a great run. With 100 players left, I was about 10th in chips, so I "harvested" a 500 chip too. I get all in with a flopped set of 10's versus a real nice guy who flopped top pair and a flush draw. The 10's held up, and the guy had me covered. After he shipped his chips over to me, he had 600 left. Long story short, he came back and crippled me an hour later in a 3-way pot. He went on to win the whole friggin thing. If I didn't "harvest" that guy busts out. 1st prize was over 150K.
That is a true story.
