Sometimes, the horrendous play of the donks at the final table of these huge tourneys really bugs me. All in in the dark? I mean.... come on.

Ugh - this guy is shaping up to be a worse champion than Jamie Gold.

With 3.3 Million left and the pot 13.5 Million or so, was he really check/folding the flop?

Of course not. But there is 0 advantage to putting it in DARK.

And that play with AQ there is mediocre, at best.

Yeah with AQ why did he not just push, he obviously decided he was playing that junk till the end.
I think Jerry thought he was pushing the guy in from the way he acted.
It was a good call with JJ as a chip leader.
Terrible play with AQ by Kahn.

Well he was going to bet it on the flop anyway so I dont think the Dark push matters IMO

And if you wont push with AQs against this loose maniac what r u waiting for? AA?

I actually dont mind his play that much -- although I likely would have just either pushed preflop or just called and taken a look at a flop. As played though, hes going all in on the flop anyway so...

He could have:
-Flat called and taken a look at the flop.
-Reraised all in.
-Reraised less.
-Waited until the flop before pushing, giving opponent a chance to lay down his hand if he REALLY misses the flop. By shoving dark, he's saying he want to see all 5 cards and opponent can not fold.

I dunno. I just think it's stupid. You can say it doesn't matter and that's fine, but CERTAINLY there is no ADVANTAGE to the dark push there, right? If he had AA or something and wanted to guarantee action, that's one thing. But remember, he had AQ.

Awesome. How sweet is it that for the second year in a row we have free access to a live feed of the final table?
