Water or Gatorade

Your best played hand ever, that you can remember:
Rockford Charitables, multi table $150 buy-in, played a JJ under to drive out a player with QQ under and an A and K on the flop.

Your worst:
In the last PIMP tourney raising "All-In" to (Phucking)Phil with pocket 8's...Phil called with pocket K's. I thought he was playing AQ or AK. Bad read on my part.

Who gets your goat at the poker tables? Who would you just love to break at the tables?:
Gary gets my goat, because we play a lot together and he knows how to get into my head. I would love to have the chance to bust Phil Helmuth and watch him whine all the home.

Are you anyone's goat that you know of? Anyone you know that YOU get to and if not anyone you'd like to pester?:
I have been told by Zuke that I'm his goat. No-one in particular that I would like to mess with more.

Let's hear your "poker resume'"; Place in any tourney's? Played poker in Vegas or at the Rockford games? You up or down in your poker career?:
Won a GEPPI one year with Zuke in second.
Placed 4th three tourneys back in a PIMP.
Placed 8th in a Rockford Charitables Multi.
Have played a lot in Aurora at the river boat.
Have played in Vegas many times in the past.
Have won or placed top 5 in many tourneys in Illinois.
Won a poker tourney on a cruise ship about 6 years ago for $6k.
Overall, I am up in my poker career. Seems if I get knocked out early, I can make it up on side tables.

Play online? Where at?:
I play online at Party Poker, Empire, and Poker Stars.

Choose your own 'Celebrity Poker Showdown' table of 5 to play with (YOU are the 6th):
I am bringing back a person from the dead for this.
1. Stu Unger (R.I.P.)
2. Johnny Chan
3. Jennifer Harmon
4. Doyle Brunson
5. Amarillo Slim

I figure. I will get spanked around enough to learn some incredible lessons.

Think you'll ever play at the WSOP and since you'll say YES - is that a *goal* or a dream?:
I definately will play at the world series. Gary and I have been planning for a year now to attend together either this year or next. (We may not be able to put enough together for the big tourney, but will definately play smaller ones to try to get in it.)
