My memorable experience comes from the 2019 WSOP Colossus event.  I was part of the Cardschat team participating.  I had managed to build up enough chips to survive a grueling 15 hour first day (automatically a min payout).  I started day 2 with a rather modest stack.  At this point, I had met many famous pro players, but none at my table.  Second session starts with Richard Seymour at my table.  For those of you who recognize the name, he was a three time Super Bowl champ with the New England Patriots and multi time Pro Bowl selection, turned pro poker player after retirement and was regularly seen on TV in poker tournaments...if you see him on TV, it's because he lasted long enough to make some final tables, and went deep in the 2019 WSOP Main event.  Early in session 2, Richard and I end up head to head...I have 8,8 to his A,J...I go all in, he calls.  My eights held up and I double up through RICHARD SEYMOUR, POKER PRO!!!!!  What a blast!!!  The entire experience was awesome...playing live poker at a local casino or even in Las Vegas is exciting like seeing a live pro football game...but this was like being at the Super Bowl, and beating a Super Bowl champ in one hand was indeed memorable, even if I only lasted another hour or so.  It was a huge thrill.
