Default Re: 2006 Tournament of Champions

To all the haters out there, bitching about sponsers exemptions, I think that Mike Sexton, is at least as deserving as Annie Duke was the first year...
He has just as many bracelets (if im not mistaken he may have her doubled at 2), and invented the damn TOC (although not in its current form)
Only the recent wave of poker know-it-alls fail to realize that prior to the poker boom, Mike Sexton was an accomplished player. Just because he acts like a clueless tool on WPT does not mean is not a shrewd player/buisnessman..

Speaking of tools, was anyone else rooting hard against DN? I thought it was great that Sexton got him (although MM beating him would have hurt his fragile little ego more) since you can tell (by the way he talks to him on poker superstars) that DN thinks he is by far the stronger player.
