@JasonKoon @phil_hellmuth Done. Under “reasons why,” I wrote:

Because he’s the best, obviously. And the hardest worker. And he has an hell of a story/background to have arrived at the pinnacle of his profession. Oh, he’s also an incredible ambassador for poker.

Thanks Andy, Triton has been the ultimate test of my poker career.

Nobody deserves this more

20 years ago I made my first trip to Vegas. I saw the legends in the Poker Hall of Fame and dreamed joining them one day. I'm 40 now and finally eligible. It's up to the fans to decide who the 8 nominees are. If you think I belong, I'd appreciate your vote. https://t.co/8kgXAl66ZY
