Default Jonny Dags. Always a brides maid, never a bride.

John SUPPOSEDLY has never won a Major tournament. Since everyone likes to make comparisons to people (Phil Ivey to Tiger Woods) How about John D'agistino is the Phil Mickelson of the Poker world. Always a brides maid, never a bride.

Cant close the deal [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] ahaha. if u read this Dags im just buggin :P

hard to do when your opponent hits running 7's on you in an all-in pot when you are the chipleader.

Variance. Learn it, live it, love it.

There are better ways in tournaments to accumalate chips then to get all your chips in against the rival chip leader as a 70/30 fav ussually at best (i know in this pot he was a bigger favorite), especially at this point in the tournament. Perhaps you're the one who doesn't understand MTTs.

Are you guys kidding? Don't you know all the best players make their money by getting All-in preflop? If you don't understand that, you don't understand MTTs

If he wants to coast into 2nd place money, he folds here. But then he'd have to listen to all the internet nerds implying that he never plays for first.

People say he never wins first but then say he made a bad call with a premium hand. Unreal.

Calling with TT here is a guy who is playing for FIRST and FIRST ONLY!

JDags: 65.2940 % 64.91% 00.38% { TT }
Hoyts: 34.7060 % 34.33% 00.38% { 22+, A2s+, K7s+, Q8s+, J9s+, T9s, A2o+, K7o+, Q8o+, J9o+ }

Playing for 1st or 6th with a vice grip on 2nd and a strong chance at still taking 1st seems nutty.

I still love this debate.
