I'd have to disagree on 2002. Rosenbloom, Gardner and Shipley are all top players. I don't know that 2004 was any better. You only really had one name player going in..Harrington. [/ QUOTE ] Josh Arieh? |

[/ QUOTE ] No he was literally the best player you never heard of, similiar to Allen Cunningham before this year...and of course I'm talking about the "general poker public" not people in the know. |

Re: Worst WSOP Final Table Ever
Cunningham had been at least one WPT final table, he was known before this year. better known than Arieh was going into last year.

Your avatar is awesome. I'd say about 95% of this forum could be in Erin Ness's position if they had a pretty face and a vagina.

So he had, what, 50% of all the braclets at the 2004 final table? Do you have to have been on tv since 2003 to be a "name player"? I guarantee you that Greg Raymer knew of him prior to the final table. -TripKings |

Re: Worst WSOP Final Table Ever
Yep, Al Krux was at his 3rd main event final table (I think 1990 and 1995 were his other ones) and he was also a bracelet holder (PLHE in 1996). So the 2004 FT had 3 prior bracelet winners (Harrington, Arieh, Krux), along with Raymer and Williams who've had some success since then as well.
