Congrats to an old friend

Back when I first started playing on Stars 4 years ago I played the lowest limit games and MTT's. I quickly realized that there were other players who were always playing the same games I was and they were very successful. I quickly became friends with 2 of these players through AIM. Pearljam1012 and Rizen. If you live under an online poker rock you've never heard these names. If not, you know that PJ won a triple crown on p5's and is probably one of the most respected online MTT players on Stars. Then yesterday I opened the Stars $1million guaranteed to check for big names at the final two tables. Rizen is sitting pretty! I cannot believe this guy!

Of course I "railbird" him all the way through the FT, which included an hour long heads up match which had him outchipped 5-to-1 at one point. HU for $80k and they never once mentioned a chop. Rizen took down $150K for first. I was so pumped you would have thought I won the thing.

Crazy to see people you played .05/.10 NL and $5 SNG's with 4 years ago winning that kind of $.
