Message: [QUOTE="Kasanova King, post: 1336036, member: 59280"] I agree. I finally got to see the ESPN broadcast of the final table on Youtube (I listened to it live online a few days earlier). It is more than fair to say in the parts they showed on the ESPM broadcast, Darvin Moon outplayed Joe Cada. He got him to muck AQ vs AJ - that was huge, and he basically had control most of the time. His biggest mistake was going all in with the open ended straight draw - and I actually like that move - heck, if he hits one of his 8 outs, he is the 2009 champion, if Cada doesn't call he takes down a nice pot....nothing wrong with that move, IMO, just bad timing - and a good call by Cada. When I was listening to the broadcast live I was actually rooting for Cada but after watching it, I ended up rooting for Moon. Cada came out to me as being very pompous. At one point he talked to Moon as if he was a little kid - very belittling. I couldn't stand the fact that he acted as if he would "automatically" win the event - even before he knocked out Saout, he goes over to his friends and says, "This is for the tournament", basically saying whoever would win that hand (between him and Saout) would win the tournament - and it wasn't a mistake, he said it 2 or 3 times...to me that's just being a cocky piece of cr@p. The only reason he was still in the tournament is because he got even LUCKIER than Moon earlier when he went all in with 2-2 and 4-4 bad beating J-J and Q-Q. Those were two of the biggest DONK moves of the tournament and no one is talking about how lucky he got. I mean Moon called with A-Q against A-K and everyone is saying how lucky he got - well guess what??? A-Q vs A-K is less of an under dog than ether 2-2 & 4-4 vs J-J or Q-Q. So Cada was LUCKIER THAN MOON. Also, to all you Phil Ivey bandwagoners, he lost because he played weak and scared - I mean he could have easily doubled up with J-J over 7-7, instead he lets himself get bluffed out and mucks the hand -WEAK PLAY. WHAT WA IVEY WAITING FOR TO PLAY??? A-A??? Pathetic performance by Ivey, IMO. [/QUOTE]
