Default Re: D\'Agostino - never first?

D'Agostino is still very young and relatively new to the poker scene. Im sure in the future he will learn how to close out a tournament. As for the question on who he lost to in verona when he placed second the answer is Phil Ivey, I'm pretty sure everyone can comprehend coming in second when faced with such a tough head up competitor.

I don't think that was a serious question about Ivey.

Default Re: Absurd Blinds = more luck

he has won a few smaller tourney's. yesterday's final table was absurd. the blinds we way out of line for a tournament of this level. it put way to much luck in the results. the two best players d'agostino and singer were somewhat unable to use their superior skills and experience. i know the wpt wants excitement, yesterday became more of a shootout because of the blinds. these high blinds turn the final tables into something similar to an online final table vs the structure of tournaments like the wsop. the two weakest players won. this might have happened anyway, but i think watching the best poker, and giving the players a lot of play to use their full abilities would be more interesting.
