Impressive results, James. Wish I made $92K last year :) You stated
that you didn't calculate your tournament winnings, yet you list bust
outs. What exactly does that mean?

I don't play cash games, can you tell? :) Of course, I don't play
online, either....

My advice to you is, if it's not broken, don't fix it. I can give you
all the cliché advice, like "play in your comfort zone","Don't bet
what you can't afford to lose", etc. But in the end, it really depends
on what you want to do with your poker playing career. It would seem
that with your winnings, you could play in several events at the WSOP,
including the Main.

Unless of course, you've already spent it all :)
