Grateful for another year and for all the people who have supported me along the way. Kind of a unique way to spend it — still playing with the final 55 left in the WSOP Circuit Main Event. Feeling thankful for the opportunity and just trying to stay patient, focused, and enjoy the moment. Appreciate all the support. It means a lot. 🎂♠️

I’m still getting over an illness, and I didn’t have my best stuff. I made one mistake early, and it was like committing an error in the first inning that turns into a big inning for the other team. From that point on, I was playing from behind, trying to battle back—but eventually I got eliminated. Here’s the lesson: baseball (and life) punishes mental lapses. If you’re not mentally prepared for every pitch, every rep, every situation, the moment can slip by—one missed sign, one step slow on a ground ball, one bad swing decision—and it changes the whole game. So the focus isn’t being perfect. The focus is being ready. I’m resetting tonight and I’ll be back at it tomorrow.

I’m headed to Arizona for an exciting weekend of coach collaboration and baseball. I can’t wait to share any nuggets I discover.
