Stick with me, I’ll make ya famous

My 15 minutes of fame has come, I will be on the roger tonight, actually playing poker with some really big names. When I spoke to other players at the event the general consensus was that they would hate to be on the tv table, the standard of opponent seemed to be a little higher, despite the complete random nature of the draw and that being on the box would make them more nervous. Well I am here to tell you that they are wrong wrong wrong, if you have any fantasies about making it big in the poker world then tv table are something you got to get used to, and the sooner you experience it the better, because it does take some getting used to. And as for the standard of player being higher , I am not sure this is a bad thing, playing tight and disciplined against them will work, they actually notice a guy who hasn’t played a hand in an hour and give the respect he deserves. All n all I got to say I loved the experience and feel I am a better player for it, of course lasting 5 hour in a 3 day tournament does leave the maximum room for improvement in ones game.
