Padilla is in a picture in ESPN's WSOP "Poker Faces" special on the web this morning. Unfortunately, it's a flash presentation and thus it can't simply be right-clicked and saved like most pictures. Hell, I can't even link to it, but it's in the gray box in the middle of the page next to the "E Ticket".

I don't have a screen-cap app here at home but if any of you have one, I would be much appreciative if you could go capture that picture and email us a copy here to we can post it. It's on a page opposite a picture of Cloney Gowan looking like she's about to cry because her tits aren't being effective enough versus the internet guys in the WSOP. Padilla is the guy in the Poor Aggy t-shirt and hat. Thanks.

UPDATE: Byron comes through!

Everyone has a screen capture ability. Just hit Print-Screen (that copies the image) and then go to a graphics program (like Photoshop) and click PASTE.

MSPaint works instead of photoshop too! START > RUN > type: "mspaint", hit enter. OR, START > PROGRAMS > ACCESSORIES > PAINT.

ALT + PRINT SCREEN captures *JUST* the active window.

That guy cracked us up, and broke some of the tension in the room. Day 2 Tension.

He stands up and, with some type of perfect-for-radio voice, screams "I've got Johnny Rockets from Daytona Beach, Florida all-in on Table 125. I need ESPN over here!!" (like sheep, they come running)

At least 4 times he was all-in before he finally got busted. He got a smattering of applause.

Which brings up another tidbit. The tension on Day 1 was broken momentarily by Matusow's meltdown 10 minutes in (we all agreed it was on purpose). Then, once somebody in the room took a beat and let out a scream, everyone chuckled. It took a while to ease the tension when everyone was hovering around 10,000 and jockeying for position at the table. With only 10,450 at the first break, I was still a bit on edge, thinking I needed to be higher. Couldn't be more wrong. You just have to win your first BIG pot, but being between 8-10K after 2 hours is perfectly OK. Having 15K at the 2nd break really help me relax, and opened up a whole different arsenal of playable hands since we hadn't lost anybody...putting me at/near the chip lead at the table.

Day 1 progression, by break...
10450
15225
17775 slowplayed A-A to bust first player
24125 at dinner break
37000 KQT board, my KJ vs AA, hit a King
52000
93025 won 25k on one hand

It looks like Padilla is taking a dump.

Hey - I was playing for your .011%, when did you want me to go?

Actually, I think I WAS 'going' on Day 1 when the "party pic" photographer came to our table.

On the WSOP.com website, there is a link to each days candid shots, which you can purchase the same way you did in college. I'm missing from the group from my table on day 1, but thankfully, my Day 2 pic was taken when I still had a big stack of chips. I can tell because my glasses are still in less than 4 pieces, as they exist today.
