Holy crap.
In both tournaments, yeah.
So now I'm just basically going to start playing a lot more of the high roller, 50K, 100K, 250, 300K buy-in tournaments.
Because look, I'm not a pro.
I don't have the time to do this all day long.
I'm actually a pretty busy guy.
And so for me, it's trying to play maybe 12 tournaments a year at the sort of 50K plus stakes level.
That's enough.
I mean, that's a lot of fun.
It's great.
But I don't feel like I'm exhausting myself on poker.
So I try and find a balance with what I do.
Well, it's worth my time, right?
So if I go and play for a couple of days and the first prize is $3, $4, $5, $6, $7 million, it's actually worth your time to go there.
If you're a pro, though, you're grinding out all the 10Ks, the 5Ks, and you're playing maybe 50, 100 tournaments a year.
I'm not in that league.
I'm never going to be a pro.
I'm just a pretty good amateur.
You're on the road the whole time.
I mean, I've got friends who do this.
