Andy has left for home. Phil won 10M on Thursday, the 23rd, putting the Corporation up over 16M for three days of play. Andy has suffered a major setback on this trip. I feel badly for Andy because he’s such a gentlemen and has worked so hard at becoming a better player. Yet that is the nature of the game. Someone always wins, someone always loses. I don’t think this particular match would even begin to suggest that Andy is not a great player. We all know Phil is a great player too. In order to test their strengths in poker, they would have to have many more matches – a three-day battle could never be considered conclusive evidence of skill,luck, etc.

To Phil and Andy, two great people, going head to head at my favorite game. *glasses clink*

Andy says he’s done. I do not believe that. Andy is not a quitter.
