    That guy Shwartz or whatever, the chess hustler, made a great laydown of the K-high flush against the A-high flush.

    Yes, I would have to agree that there was truly some great play at this year's final table. I think I've seen final tables in the past where there were three or four I didn't think belonged. At this final table, maybe one didn't belong.

    As for Eastgate's reaction after winning, I like to think I would be exactly the same way. In the poker tournaments that I've won I've never jumped up and celebrated or talked any trash. Just not the way I am.

    Probably because he realized that after those crazy Dutch taxes he was only taking home like 750 bucks. :)

    Well since he's Danish, I guess that won't affect him.

    The last hand was sick. Catching the wheel to give the other guy 2 pair? That's a dream hand. Like you said, he did play well too.

    Ah, all the same to me. The problem with most of the world is it's full of foreigners :)
