Re: Allen Cunningham\'s FT Performance
This is such a retarded thread. Just because someone is a professional does not mean that he's some kind of god that can shoot lightning bolts out of his ass to miracle all the chips over to himself. He had only 2 big hands that we know of. The TT vs KdQd where he could not possibly call, and the TT where he busted. Despite having almost no good hands at showdown, he picked up more pots than anyone other than Gold.
He might have been 2nd or whatever in chips going into the FT but he did not have a very big percentage of the chips in play. If he had Gold's cards and Gold had his cards then it's extremely likely that the two would have played HU. Poker is a skill game, but Cunningham had a huge deficit to make up, and he just didn't have enough things going his way for it to happen.
