In an interview with Neil following his 2nd place finish, he is very determined to win his 1st WSOP Gold Bracklet, and had this to say:
br/> "I’m a min-casher. I cash a lot in the middle. I don’t play the mixed-games that much. When it comes to poker, I’m down in the trenches. I play with 2,500 or 3,000 people every day. Last year, I played 25 events and I made 11 Day Twos. And that was the events with like 1,500 players or more. For 36 straight days I came to the Rio each day thinking this is going to be a long day. It’s hard work."
