BEST WPT ever?

[orange]

I also enjoyed (WPT championship season 1?) with Phil, Doyle, Alan, Kirill, and Ted. The heads-up match was great.

Brilliant because it worked. Had Sumar had a stronger hand and called, we would all be here talking about how dumb Tony G's play was.

I enjoyed this one very much as well. I agree that shallower stacks make for worse poker but heck it made for pretty good tv.

I thought the play with the 63offsuit was more clever. He goaded him in to making a big bet by calling clock.

Exactly because having a hand strong enough to call that with comes around all the time, right? Wrong, that was a brilliant play because it is very unlikely that Sumar has a hand that will be able to call. Results are meaningless, making the right play based on the circumstances is what it's all about. Tony G. outplayed Sumar plain and simple. JMO
