Watching you actually struggle for the words when you was on that break.....people don't realise just how big, how amazing, that tournament feels. We couldn't be happier for you man!

[@ccox2823]

Loved that genuine reaction from Andrew, makes you realize how big of a thing this tournament is when even a long seasoned pro like him reacts like that.

[@undergreenthunder8037]

Honestly one of the most genuine and moving two minutes on KZbin I have ever experienced.

[@rodicus]

Epic run. I’ve only known a couple guys to play in the Main and the best those guys could muster was a couple selfies with Negreanu and William Hung. Congratulations on a deep run!!!

@@LiuKangPoker omg. The stupidity continues.

[@DrSnowBrainHealth]

Great job! A few years ago I went deep also and busted in 380th in the Main Event with pockets queens against ace king of spades for over 1 million chips…first card I see in the window is queen of spades; one spade on the flop that gave me trip queens on the flop; turn was a spade; river was a spade; didn’t pair the board; busto! It happened so fast with a super fast dealer….I was in shock! And will always remember that moment for the rest of my life.

[@jorgeuc71]

13:00 - seeing you "stop to smell the roses" for a minute was amazing. Thanks for including that.

[@dans_pool]

LOL “Do you wanna go together?” “……sure Ali, we will tslk about that”

[@Trabendo_daze]

Turns out 5 days of little sleep and 12 hours of poker each day can break even the most hardened warriors. The man almost shed a tear! Good run, Mr. Neeme.

[@ShadowKylar]

That’s not what breaking looks like. That’s living!

[@generichuman2044]

Incredible run, Andrew. Top 200 in such a large and prestigious event must feel surreal.

[@kenway103]

I couldn't agree more! Being in the top 2% in a tournament is a very well earned achievement

[@manlyminnesotan]

As one of the early subscribers and watching your journey since the start, I couldn't be happier for you! Your grace, calm, wit and skill say everything about why you made it to 164th place. Can't wait to see how you do next year, and I was getting emotional too just watching you! Congrats!

[@Tarasyoutube]

I am nine minutes into this video and it definitely my favoritest video you have ever made ☺️😍🥰 when you said 211 number mid video we all could practically cry for you 😭😄

[@udaykulkarni4159]

That's Andrew Neeme at 12:50 ladies and gentlemen from first blog and favorable brand to rank 164 in WSOP main event. One day will see you in Final table. Pure Moment of life for you 👍. No words just emotion. 👍👍

[@silverlicious2086]

Andrew, I saw the news a few days ago. Extremely happy to see this as I know you were. After all these years, this is a moment we will always remember. Thank you for being a friend and an inspiration.... for all of us.

[@sabman83]

Played with you on day 3 and didn’t get to tell you how much your vlogs influenced me. I could totally connect with you when you got emotional. Getting a deep run in the main event is indeed something. Congrats!

[@xavierharding8938]

The real in the moment footage and the emotion was great to see because your true fans were just as emotional for you. You play poker for a living and have been kind enough to allow us along for part of the ride. You starting this vlog was a blessing for us as we would've never had the chance to get to know you. From the meet up games, to the vlogs, to your current big cash games and this deep run it's awesome to see. It's smart to feel and live in the moment as a run this deep in such a huge tournament may not happen again. But whether it's this tournament or another or a huge cash score we are pulling for you Andrew ! I want to see you hit at least a 6 figure score if not a million one day. Good luck !

[@mrburns805]

You’re the reason I got really into poker. I played in the WSOP for the first time this year. Bought into three $1k buy ins and cashed 2 of them. Even got all the way to 31st place in one. I just wanted to say great run in the main and thanks for the consistent source of information and inspiration.

[@casinoman1972]

Good Job Andrew. You’ve been entertaining me for years. I was just thinking about when you started your blog and opened presents from your fans. God bless!

[@benjaminmorton4958]

What a stud. Been watching Andrew for years, crazy to see him in this kind of high cotton. Congrats man.

[@michaelcapozzoli6021]

Emotions running high is normal.. I had the same feeling in the Monster. Great great run, it won't be your last run at the main. I'm hoping to enter 2024, depending on finance, someday see you there, deep. Congratulations! Mike from Michigan.

[@chrishaines2745]

Watching the rawness of pure emotion during the dinner break was awesome. That’s the good stuff. Congrats on a fantastic run.

[@DrSnowBrainHealth]

By the way….I love your blog and have watched it for many years…making a deep run in this years main event is truly epic and your poker tourney accomplishments can only grow from here…and yah now you got some confidence and bragging rights when you sit down at the table at your next tourney

[@patrickjordan2233]

Wow.. and this is why I've been subbed for years... You exude gratitude and humility.. NICE, my friend.. 👍👍😁😁👍👍

[@bellcansell]

I’ve been watching poker vlogs/videos for years but this has been, hands down my favorite all time video. The raw emotion, the perfect explanation of hands and of course Mr. Neeme going deep. A+ and amazing deep run.

[@howardl1143]

Couldn't happen to a nicer guy! You're a good player and even better person. Thanks for the video!

[@Tarasyoutube]

the coolest thing about the last table waa the heavy sigh of your opponent,the pursed dissapoimted lips of Walton, the announcers voice sounding low. Everyone loves ya buddy! each bummed at the moment of your last hand there. so sweet. 🤗🥇❕️❕️❕️

[@toffeefan]

Your spot at the end of the day 5 dinner break is fantastic to see. the emotion on your face is clear and to see someone who has been around the game at a high level take stock of this moment and appreciate it for what it is is great to see. Well done for keeping it real.

[@nishantthaccker1173]

You were the one of the first Poker Vloggers and have been an inspiration for bringing in other Poker vloggers into the mix... (Owen, Mariano, Rampage etc..) What you achieved in the WSOP Main event is damn impressive so enjoy the moment !!

Watching this, you can tell it doesn't get more real than this. A genuine account of a cash game grinder running deep in the most prestigious poker tourney of the year. Loved watching this - Congrats Andrew! Also, fun that this was my 1st time cashing the main too - brought me right back to that Day4 buzz

[@robcorrea3400]

Great run! This vlog hits so close to home for me, because I lived the exact ride you went on 1 year ago when I finished 101st and I was full of the same emotions that you had. BTW, it was great meeting you on break during day 1!

[@drewdonham]

good job running deep in main, i see you only have results for two main events, how is that possible? are you an online player? good job on the runs tho, you should play every year. :)

[@mikeleo9720]

You will go deep in the main again!! We all know you will! Love watching your journey! Input on the FVRBL hoodie while you were playing day 5, sorry the luck didn’t work! Cheers!

Tournament poker when you run deep is like a drug. Something that a cash game can't replicate.

[@CStewWV]

So happy for you man. Been watching since the beginning and to have gone from 2/5 games to raising stakes, to occasional big buyins, to WPT sponsorship, your own poker room and now a bucket list type thing. Great to watch. Congratulations!

[@ibracadabraroot]

Your community is super proud of you. I chatted with you briefly at the dinner break (I was on my dinner break of a smaller event I cashed in) and I told you that I took 7 years off from poker and I had you and brad to thank for getting me back in with your videos and home games at maryland live. Now I have 2 straight wsop cashes (small cashes but they count). Thanks for taking the time to listen to me fan boy and I hope to play with you in the future.

The feeling of busting out of the Main Event is indescribable especially getting as far as he got.

Don't be disappointed, Andrew! You played well, and cashed more than half of the people in the country make in a year. The video turned out very well, too -- it really captured how you were feeling, and being there. What else is there to say, aside from the fact that your haircut looked sharp, on TV.

Congratulations Andrew. What an achievement! Been with you since vlogging and poker content were pretty rare on the internet, right after jcarver and doug/ryan had opened up the Twitch scene I found you on youtube (I remember another less serious poker player on KZbin "the trooper" but it was sparse content across the board). Happy to see good things come to those who work for it. With the best intentions, I really believe you could still run deeper! Thank you for sharing this journey.
