PokerNews: How does it feel to be at your first 2014 WSOP final table?
I feel good. I don’t think I have made any big mistakes. I have been getting a bit lucky with the boards and the cards, but so far so good.
Has it been a tough final table?
I think it is getting tougher as it goes along. I think the better players made it to the final five.
Any key moments or key hands that put you on the road to the final table?
I bought in at 8:15 p.m., late. Doing that I think you make the most per hour and raises your chance of min-cashing.
At one point I was down to 4,800 chips and I was all in at about 8 percent to win. The hand went raise, call, a 3-bet by a very aggressive player, Dan Kelly. I had king-jack and I put my money in with 4:1 odds and one other person saw the flop. He bet, and it comes a 10-high flop with two clubs. I had the 
and he had aces. I ended up winning that and just kind of kept rolling.
Are you feeling confident in your play?
Yeah, I'm feeling confident. I usually do.
