But now he has four months to get coaching and improve his game!

The FT looks decent to me and three of my four horses made it. In fact, seeing as I don't really like Esfandiari too much, three of my three made it really.

Not a single post about the ME although I'm sure everyone is watching. The final three tables are below, I think we all know who we are cheering for ! If Ivey doesn't win, I'd like to see my fellow twenty-something Brit James Akenhead take it down.

Akenhead is going down like Michael Bisping did vs. Dan Henderson!

Quiet you flag waving fool. Remind me how well Team USA did against Team UK in the latest season of TUF? I thought so.

OMG how stupid do you have to be to one of these bets. Seeing how they are offering it, probably not very.

The Bodog owner is loaded and now I know why.

[Finsel Nutfin]

bump!

[jimmer]

When the final table gets underway, what will the blinds and antes be up to?

[HalfSugar]

Are you railing it live c-note?

[Finsel Nutfin]

I believe they will be starting at 120k/240k with a 30k ante. And yes, I may be. Adam and I will be in Vegas for a convention. We won't be there for the November 7 play down to heads up, but we will be in town when they play heads up on the 9th.

[HalfSugar]

So uh, Joe Cada huh?

[efram]

wow
that final table was.....
rediculous is the best word.
Darvin Moon played like an idiot and was beyond lucky to make it heads up for the title.
Joe Cada, also beyond lucky to make it heads up.
Sadly, sometimes poker has nothing to do with skill. This final table was a fine example of that.
I wish they would stop calling this tourney a championship.
cool to see a 21yr old kid win it, but I would rather see some skill instead of dueces shoving to a re-raise preflop suckout fest
really? shoving dueces to a re-raise preflop?

pre-final table
One major moment I saw with about 14 players left was Billy Kopp shoving his mini-flush into a paired board/3flush board vs a re-raise, and Darvin Moon calling that shove with the 3rd nut flush.
Anyone else make that call, in that place in the tourney?
I'm nuthin but a nit/donk, but I fold that flush there if I'm in that spot to that re-raise shove.
Anyone else call there?

congrats on the cashes Crack

How many words is "lol donkaments," technically? This is the first year I have cared absolutely zero about the WSOP ME, despite Ivey making the final 9.
