Darvin Moon definitely not a math wiz, but its nice to see people like him win who don't have to calculate the odds every single second.
When they had Joe Cada on guess the poker cards cam I had him Ace and a weaker kicker and LON says Ace and a higher kicker; he shows and its 3,6 clubs, go figure!
Most of the plays that cada made were actually correct in the given situation, he just kept running into a brick wall. The only horrible play I can remember from the top of my head not made by darvin was Saout's massive overshove with 88 near the end. Was certainly entertaining..
It was also very fun to see how far Moon could miss-step in a hand. It was absolutely hilarious when he lied to his family about having QQ on a 432 board and laying it down being priced in 7:1, telling them he thought the other guy had AK.
I also avoided the news and in order to watch it last night. It was an exciting Final Table and very entertaining to watch!!! The chip leader changed several times, some amazing river beats, and ends with an impossible comeback from a player down to just a few blinds.
But as far as good poker, it was a travesty. Darvin Moon played like a donkey, going all in left and right with garbage. Earlier in the tournament he played well with strong hands, but his Final Table bluffs were embarrassing to watch. Despite his awful play, he still managed to get one card away from winning it all in the heads up play. Cada played well for being low stacked, but his winning was the product of several miracle river cards. All winners need some luck, but Cada’s luck seemed more like a fluke of nature.
The pros probably wanted to puke after watching Cada vs Moon to decide the “World Champion of Poker”, but it was entertaining. Congrats to Joe Cada.

But really and truly, and i agree with u completely...isnt there ALWAYS 1 of these guys in EVERY poker tourny? Seeing that might even help me a lil, i tilt the most when im folding 30 hands in a row and some SOB is playing any 2 cards every other hand and flopping the nuts over and over again....
It also goes to show that maybe building a large stack early by making close gambles is the way to win MTT's....Im going to x-factor right now to watch some BelowAbove videos....lol
