    I had a huge smile on my face listening to talk about playing with Doyle and the Phils and the reason I did was two fold. One, was the amount of pride I felt seeing you playing in a lineup like this knowing how far you’ve come and being able to come along for the ride and the other was because for the past 20 years, that’s been something I’ve always hoped to be able to do. Good job, Brad and keep it up!

    I played with Hellmuth in a charity event ran by the Wounded Warrior Project in Dallas sometime around 2012 (looked up my post about it, it was Feb 2011), and he was a real stand up guy. Posed with anyone who wanted a picture, myself included, and while not playing MC, he spoke multiple times to the room and kind of announced the all ins at the final table. It's one of my better poker memories.
    Also, he's huge.

    As a guy about 12 years older than you from Sonoma County (Penngrove), it brings me huge pride to know a guy from our area is doing so well in the poker world and sitting next to these legends. I used to play at the 101 Casino and now Graton for fun but 20 years ago I used to dream of doing what you are doing. Couldn't be prouder of you that you're doing what you love and are making it and taking us along for the ride with humor and humility.

      The 101 is where my dad worked (not Bay 101 for anyone reading this not from Sonoma County). My mom actually named it that, before it was Sonoma Joe's. I played there quite a bit from 2010-2012. Thanks for the comment Rick.

      I used to go to Sonoma on a regular basis and spent time around the Napa valley quite a bit in my senior year of high school and first year after. This would have been around 2004-2005. And then I came back to California after some time away at college and really spent most of my free time there with one of my best friends. We went to Sonoma State on several occasions, hung out in Petaluma many times and went line-dancing in downtown petaluma at Kodiak Jacks when it was still open. Crazy you grew up around where I did and have been to tons of the same places. Thanks for the great content Brad. Super proud of your dedication and commitment man. Only place to go from here is up!

Ik u get it everyday im sure but if ya ever did that for me n i win ill give every penny to research MMN n if i lose u can do whatever but ik youd put it to good use. Idk if u ever play 2-5 no limit anymore but itd be hard to save up for anything bigger i really cudnt. No biggie if not i understand getting booked from a gorgeous cripple still peaking at 38 cud be career ending but ill carry on ur name np

I had left the table to take a break. I was seat 2, he was the new guy with a cowboy hat in seat 4. Didn't even notice it was him when I got back because I had been chatting with seat 1...until Doyle drawled "yes ma'am" to my all-in announcement and I glanced over.

    I feel like every single episode these days I'm left thinking "WOW! You've really made it. This is surreal! What an awesome journey you're on, I can't wait to see what other opportunities and endeavors await, it's great to see hard work pay off!" and yet it never loses its novelty. Genuinely happy for you Brad!

      Brad id like to know why u jammed the doyle hand it seems so not profitable idk. How much will u get called n have him in a tuff spot. Like never. He has two overs like 80% of the tome n theyre paired like 30% of the time it seems like a bad play. N ur hand made n can bluff catch if u had to trust your reads bro u did it cuz u respected him too much n i get it. But ur a match guy that was a stretch bro ur jyst sweating n crushed so much idk i hated it

    When some of these names started showing up in the vlogs early on, it seemed inevitable that you’d sit with these guys more regularly. It’s been so fun watching you grow as a player, creator, and person. Congrats on an amazing 2022, but 2023 has no idea what’s about to hit it!

    So fun to see Brad playing bigger and bigger. I remember watching the blogs documenting his first 5/10 then 10/20. Now he’s checking quickly to try and make Phil Ivey respond in a particular way, and taking $20k Doyle Dollars. Bravo!

    Hey Brad, I've been watching you since you first started streaming and wanted to say how awesome it is to see how far you've come. A lot of us 9 to 5 guys wish we had your level of success. Keep grinding!

      This is now my second stint playing poker for a living. The first time didn't go so well; I went broke, had to go back to school, and then I was working for an accounting firm where you could literally see the Bellagio fountains going off in the distance everyday. I would always think to myself I wish I was playing poker instead of working on Excel spreadsheets. I understand and appreciate your comment.

    Awesome to see you sitting with the best and not looking out of place. Getting a smile from Doyle with the basketball comment was legendary, something you can tell your grandkids, even better than having your tens hold up in a 40k pot. Well done Brad.

    I rarely comment on your vlogs, I have been following you since the beginning and you are the standard when it comes to poker vlogs! You have a great demeanor and are well spoken and humorous, and in my opinion you are deserving of all of your success. You have worked hard to get where you are and when you sat at this table I know your dad was smiling down on ya! You've made it man!!! Dreams with hard work are attainable. Keep it going Brad your a great ambassador for this game so many of us love!!!

    I cried some tears out seeing your dream realized sitting at the table at the beginning of your video.

    I remember watching the stream and after Doyle left and Brad found out Dan Smith was gonna be the next guy filling the spot to Brads left, Brad said, “can we get Doyle back?” That got a good laugh out of me. So awesome to see you in this environment Brad!

I usual find it annoying to see vloggers jumping into huge games within months of becoming UA-cam successes but you have always kept your progression reasonable and believable. You make us average Joe's have hope that with patience, discipline and hard work we can progress as well.
