Yesterday, Mike "GoLeafsGoEh" won 2 WSOP Circuit rings in 24 hours! Amazing feat. What is the most impressive run you think has happened in poker history?

  1. That's pretty impressive. But how about Raymer's back to back WSOP Main Event runs? That was something else.

  2. Dan Harrington going 3rd and 4th in '03 & '04 in the Main Event was pretty impressive especially considering the major jump in players in '04.

  3. How about Layne Flack going back-to-back in '02 and then winning two more bracelets on '03?

  4. One of the most impressive accomplishments I've seen is someone (I forget his screenname) winning the PartyPoker Sunday $250k (or was it the $500k?) on back-to-back Sundays, back in 2005ish.

    Actually, Jeff Lisandro winning all 3 Stud events at the WSOP a couple of years ago was beyond incredible. That one takes the cake, in my book.

  5. Does Jamie Gold winning the Main Event count? That was a feat in itself!

  6. I might go with Phil Hellmuth finishing second three times at the WSOP in 2011. Yeah, he didn't win but I don't think anyone would turn down a run like that.
