Vanderford Still Enjoying the Day

Floyd Vanderford just stopped by the PokerNews booth to check out a couple of pictures of him playing at this event. We informed him that the first picture he would see would be of him busting out of the event.

Vanderford: "I busted for $100,000. I might put that on my wall."

When asked what he planned to do with the money, he said, "set a speed record getting to the bank to make a deposit." He then informed us that he would be making the trip out to Vegas to play at the World Series of Poker.

Afterwards, he wished us well and then headed off for the bank. Hopefully, he doesn't get a speeding ticket.
