Still winning and played with a WSOP champion

Well this is positive variance for sure, I am playing really good right now. Just crushing the 3-5 NL games at the Muckleshoot and Tulalip. I havent had a losing session since I have gotten back from the Philippines. Only losing session was 100 dollars playing 3-6 limit, which is basically donkey/no fold em hold em. I manged to turn an initial buy in of $300 into $1243 after 7 hours of play. Major hand of night was QQ in BB. With 5 limpers, I then raise it to 30. 3 callers, flop is 7, 3, Q. I check, raise of 30 every one folds, i call, turn is a king, I check he bets out 100 I push in and I have him covered for 600. He calls he holds k7, river no king. I take down a huge pot.I have been making the right plays, right bluffs, right laydowns, I am just playing so above the rim right now as my idol Phil Hellmuth Jr likes to say.

I also unknowingly played with Christian Van Hees, who is a WSOP bracelet winner, with multiple final table appearances. Turns out to be a nice guy who just loves to play poker, they werent having the 5/10 NL game going, so thats why some of those players were at the 3/5 game.
