Many congratulations to Andrew Barber on winning his first gold bracelet and what a star studded event to do it in. H.O.R.S.E. tournaments are for the truly great poker players and to win one must be amazing

Many congratulations to Andrew Barber on winning his first horse. definitely a great companion for the old school cowboy, though kind a big dog to have in your city apartment. really hope that andrew can win another poker tourney where a ranch is on offer, that would go along well with his horse.
