Got to hand it to you Brad. And I mean hand it to you twice. First for giving it your best and taking that 2nd game. Huge accomplishment. And 2nd for telling a great story in this vlog. The work you put into this vlog really shows. You captured all the right footage but more importantly, you put it all together with your signature creativity and It was really a full length feature vlog that you can def be proud of. Your best production yet. I really enjoyed this as I'm sure many others did and will as well. Thank you!

I think they are saying too much and way more like bros that's been playing together for years. I know you were so nervous but you did well. Watching you for the past few years I've seen so much growth in your game. I liked that you kept it smaller in games for so long because so many people go broke trying to level up fast with higher cash games and using all their stacks. Hopefully those views and advertising on KZbin are helping your bankroll. I do feel you'll be more of a grinder like the old school poker players.
