seemed like everyone went out making retarded bluffs. i liked both of the final two although eastgate could've looked just a bit happier about winning 9 million dollars and becoming the youngest main event winner of all time.

I was pretty disapointed with the coverage.
It was 35% commercials, 20% omg all in lets flip the cards and slow as possible, 20% omg my hand held up let me get hugs, 10% shit I do not care about like interviews and flashbacks to other MEs, 15% poker.
It would be like watching the Super Bowl, and they go to commercial break every other down. And everytime a pass is completed the teams run into the seats and hug the fans. And every down you show a clip from a previous Super Bowl.
The show really had no flow at all I was pretty upset.
plus I thought they were going to show the Final Table Live on Mon/Tues.

Yaaah it was on TSN last night!
It was alright. Eastgate or whatever his name was, ran sooooo mega super hot it was sick. And people just kept bluffing him at the biggest dumbass spots.
They didn't show much of the HU portion at all. They loved showing the crowds though, trying to make it feel like a soccer match or something.

I think generally ESPN coverage has improved a lot the last couple years esp in the ME, this was a big step back. 4 hours at least next year

I thought Phillips played sooooo bad, and like a giant pussy. And Eastgate looks like he has NEVER been tilted ever. Only guy I know who hits a 3 outer for a giant pot at ME final table and doesn't seem to care.

omg that hand made my eyes bleed. i kinda liked phillips leading up to that hand. after that catastrophe i wanted him to lose. i think my fav thing that happened was kim creeping into 8th place with like 1bb the whole time lol.

ya for real HU was so massively edited it was ridiculous. what was it...2 hands long on tv? i wanted to see 2 decent players really go at it for the 9 mill but no we get 1 hand then they skip to demidov being outchipped like 8-1 or something and then it's over. so lame.
