While Moneymaker was out in early rounds of his 'repeat attempt' last year, Greg Raymer has just proven that his win at last year's WSOP was no fluke, placing 25th out of this year's field of 5619 players.

I'd have to say this accomplishment nears that of Dan Harrington's back to back final table appearences.

Kudos Raymer.

You really should just keep this in the WPT forum instead of spamming the board.

Hmmmmmm....... how 'bout this:



No.




If you need a reason, try this: Raymer is a 2+2'er who deserves to be recognized (in each forum, if need be).

I don't go to the WPT forum or the MTT forum, where these would be more appropriat, but do care to hear, so I have no problem with seeing this posted here.

Congrats to Raymer though, I really was rooting to see him win it though.

if the field is just as large (or gasp! larger) next year and Fossilman repeats/surpasses this year's performance, I think it would be a better performance than even Harrington's.
I'm sure people would make the argument that Raymer's consecutive finishes are already better than Harrington's since the field was so huge both times.

eh, its all mental masterbation.... /images/graemlins/tongue.gif

This showed up on the first page for some reason, I must've accidently clicked some other option..

I did think it was weird that this was on the front page again.

Mr. Raymer is my favorite poker player, I am a big fan. I was a little disappointed with his comments immediately after he lost that large pot on the bad beat, however I understand them given the situation. Then again maybe it was some ESPN editing.

It was well deserved, I was just getting off a great session, saw this post and went "Why in the hell is there another Raymer post? I love Raymer, his WSOP run was the most impressive tourney poker accomplishment ever, but its been 4 months! Sarcastic post time!"

And then I find out I am the idiot.

But in honor of Thanksgiving, let us once again pay tribute to Greg for being classy as hell, and winning more money in his second best run than we'll ever win on our best day.
