It's funny - I thought watching this wouldn't be that interesting, but it's pretty great. I guess when I first heard about it, I wasn't expecting the good commentary and though it would be like when you are railbirding live (which sucks). This is quite entertaining. I'm gonna stay up for a while...

Does AC stand to win Full Tilt's extra 10 mill? That'd be a sick payday.

Just chiming in with the redundant "This is freakin sweet."

Did Cunningham have a straight there? They thought so but I thought he said "I got a ten"

I hope Jamie Gold wins, because all the donkeys will start to love that moronic limp/reraise.

I'm honestly torn between wanting Cunningham to win it vs. having another amateur champion. Every year that it looks like "anybody can win" is good for us. Although it doesn't really sound like there's anything close to a Moneymaker-type story going.

Gold after getting sucked out on:

"How much better can I play?" as he shakes his head.

Give me a break. He seems to be playing well and not really making any mistakes. But come on. Does he not realize his good fortune in ALWAYS coming out with the best hand?

I'm definitely not just gonna call the guy a lucksack. He seems to be very solid, but he's gotta recognize the good fortune he's had.

Edit: Lol. Looks like everybody beat me to it.

I don't think he qualified on Full Tilt (I remember hearing when their last qualifier was busted on Monday or so), so I don't think he's eligible. But don't worry, if he does win, I'm confident Full Tilt will take care of him quite nicely.

You know, on top of his $12 million payday, which would TRIPLE his already impressive $6 million in career tourney earnings.

Nah..... it would be just fine for poker for Cunningham to win. He'll make a good champion too - FAR better than Gold would, IMO.
