I don't follow other players or the tournaments they play. I have my own schedule and do my own thing. I never really think, 'Oh, I want to be or play like so-and-so.' I just like being myself.

I don't play a lot of tournaments, but if I don't win a tournament in a year, people are like, 'What in the world is going on?' People don't realize how hard it is to win tournaments. You're not going to go out and play 10 tournaments and win one of them. Your odds aren't that good.

I don't come to tournaments to make friends, to go to parties, to hold conversations. I come to be the best, and I'm not mean and cruel and dirty.

I'm content. I want to have better success in the tournaments than I've had, but I know I'm playing well, so I'm happy with that.

Every time I go into a tournament, I'm strictly on my own. I know I'm playing for my bread and butter.

When you start off a new tournament, you want to do well.

I don't play any tournaments to come second best.

I want to win as many tournaments as I can.

Some guys seem to jump right out and win tournaments, but for me, I've been the kind of player who is getting a bit better each year.
