Return of OmaRoach

As Chad mentioned on MDIT Radio I may have been 35 of 39 as we approached the bubble, managed to double up to get safely in cash. I was probably 22 of 27 when bubble broke and then did my waiting patiently and climbing thing. When I did accumulate a few chips I couldn't hit flops but I was scraping enough that other people at table started to notice. Thought I would clip comments and some hand histories.
