Default Dannenmann

What are all the Dannenmann detractors basing their opinions on? Ok, he should have gotten away from his top pair against Hachem's straight, and he spewed chips to Lederer earlier on. Aside from those two incorrect reads, though, how exactly did he play badly? To me, Lazar's play was definitely more questionable (Steve wouldn't have tilted like that), and Kanter's probably was too.

Anyone else believe that Dannenman has been playing a lot longer than he says ? No way you could play no limit hold em for 3 months and make it through that big of a field, without someone having trapped you earlier in the tournament. It's IMPOSSIBLE.

The point is that it's totally NOT impossible. This is a very important fact to understand when thinking about tournament poker.

Also- some people learn quick. I'd wager that Danneman was probably a much better player by the end of the WSOP than he was at the start. Can't really ask for a better crash course in poker.

this is a close call between dannenmann and kanter.

i didn't see all the coverage, but it seemed that dannenmann played pretty poorly throughout. kanter it seems only played really terribly in a couple of spots, but fossilman seemed to imply once that he was pretty bad throughout. without more info, i'd have to say dannenmann because my coin came up tails.

Citanul- based on what we saw, Dannenmann played pretty solid, Kanter was much worse (but almost all we saw of Kanter were just bad hands, so it's hard to say).

I really don't think we have enough information to make this decision and am tempted to lock this thread. What say you, unwashed masses of the WPT forum, should posts like this live or die?

I think that posts like this, posts calling people coke heads, posts about well, basically all that stupid non poker crap, should be locked pretty quick. but i took a shower today, so i don't count.

That would be the end of this forum pretty quickly. (The pointless posts, not your shower.)
