Title: Re: Mike sexton Post by: Horneris on June 28, 2006, 01:02:08 PM Andrew Black, is clearly a class act, i just wish hed calm down a bit when he gets a big chip lead on final tables. Instead of trying to knock everyone out stragiht away, just calm down, wait for a few players to drop and wait for a few situations
