I got a chuckle out of the fact that when the Q fell on the river, the cameras instantly go to Juanda, who responds by taking a sip of his drink.

But I think it's one of those hands where juanda doesnt expect to win and darden doesnt expect to lose so when it happens neither know how to react. It's the beats that you see coming from a mile away that you always get pissed off at.

Uhm, you are saying that if this had been like a 9-outer instead of a 2-outer both Juanda and Darden would have been running around screaming?

I totally agree.

All that jumping, shouting, hooping and hollering really isn't necessary. It's only poker. Mattias Anderson needs medication. And that Bartholomew guy made the other guy cry when he celebrated after his nut flush beat the second nuts.

"That's what um talkin' bout!!!"

It was more like: "Das' wut I'm chalkin bout!!!"

Did you guys see this? Darden had Aces and Juanda had queens going into the river. Darden puts Juanda all in and he calls. Darden shows his ace and remarkably the River is a Queen and neither of them say a word. Darden doesn't complain and Juanda doesn't celebrate. ( I actually love watching this instead of people acting like idiots )

Completely disagree. Poker will lose its popularity much faster if all we see are emotionless robots and chess players. Who, in all honesty, does not love watching Matusow or Hellmuth play? They wear their hearts on their sleeves and it just makes damn good tv.

No! Really? He plays it up for the camera?? Come off it! No way.

Juanda over played his hand. Darden might have been silent, but just the look of his eyes, and stillness of his face, you see the rage he was thinking in his head on losing on the river to a 2-outer. That just sickens me.

Worst beat of the main event, even more that Matusow losing at the final table.

With 5600 players, you can bet there were some river one outers, or possibly runner runner perfect.

Darden didn't put juanda all in, juanda moved all in..

Either way I couldn't believe the lack of emotion shown on the both of them either. But I think it's one of those hands where juanda doesnt expect to win and darden doesnt expect to lose so when it happens neither know how to react. It's the beats that you see coming from a mile away that you always get pissed off at.

I really wish I knew more details on this hand though, because that seems like a very crazy play on juandas part.

[/ QUOTE ]

I have to see it again. I thought Juanda was thinking and then said, "oky i call. Do you have an ace?"

On ESPN, Darden had AK and Juanda had QQ. The board was AAxx. I'm pretty sure this is how it happened because Juanda said, "Do you have an Ace?" He wouldn't ask this if the guy had Aces. The Q came on the river to give Juanda a full house and Darden still only had trips.

[/ QUOTE ]

Yes you're correct! I knew there was 2 aces on teh board I got confused. That is correct what you wrote.
