Final table - 2008 WSOP Main Event. - Page 5

Yeah I agree, terrible players who will continue bragging about winning tournaments and entering a ton of new tournaments/staying active in the pokerworld are actually great poker ambassadors (Hellmuth.. Gold..). Having a solid player win that goes off the grid and just continues grinding is not really something we want to see is it. Although I guess a WSOP ME winner won't get off the grid hehe.

Still I hope you see my point.

I always thought Chino Rheem would be in the HU. He seems like a solid, thinking player.

not much you can do when you shove AK, get called by AQ, and a lady hits the flop. I agree, he's a super solid player. Sometimes its not enough

I think we've had enough of those the last few years, where people start to think it's all about luck and the internetpro's start to think it's always won by donkeys. I think it's nice to see a decent player who put a lot of hard work in it win for a change.

Yes nice!!!

he sucked big time tho
