I really wanted Allen to win.

But I feel, Jamie played really good poker and he's a deserving champion. I just don't get all the hate for the guy.
Also, I don't understand why a teenage (young) player winning would be good for the game; outside of some of you guys feeling identified with such player, I just can't see the +EV of such occurrence.
I prefer an influx of middle-aged new players who feel identified with Gold driven to the game, they already have good jobs, win good money and most probably will be recreational players.
Why would you want an influx of even more teenage players to the game? If they are bad players, they leave almost no money in the poker economy since they don't have it and if they're good they'll make the game more difficult for us.

I think Jamie Gold will be a good ambassador for poker.
