| Buy a new iPod to replace the one someone stole at the tourney, for starters.  Then he's planning on playing more of the LAPC events and moving up to higher limits. I'm sure he has some non-poker uses for it, but I don't think he's planned it out yet. Still a little overwhelmed.

| Congratulations. My only victory came at a poker.com $100 freeroll. I was upset they moved from 100 places to 15. It forced me to play a different game and the result was first place. Haven't been able to do that again, however. |

| Hey nxt, I don't think they got a pic of him with the cash, but you're right, that would be nice!! And no, I didn't have a share of him in this one, but another friend of mine was playing the same event and they did a swap, so she did get 5% of his winnings - a very nice payday for her!!

| He's playing just about every other event. He's cashed in two more, but nothing much more than breaking even. He has a blog, if anyone is interested in following him in the tourneys. http://absinthesparks.blogspot.com/

| Wow, Send my congrats to him. He took down a very nice payout with only having to front $300 and lasted through over 1100 entrants. Was this his first big win ever or has he taken down first in similar tournaments before? |

| That was his first big win. But I doubt it will be the last.
