Who cares if the new "ambassador of poker" is a no-talent luckbox? If memory serves correctly, that's exactly what Moneymaker was, and that didn't really have a negative effect on the game, did it?

And if the problem is that he's a prick - since when do you need to be a good person to win a poker tournament? This just in - life does not work out like in the movies, sometimes people get what they don't deserve.

I fail to see how anybody can be logically upset over this, especially since it will not affect them in any way whatsoever. You're jealous, get over it.

You seem to be upset that we're upset. How, exactly, does our opinion effect you?

Of course I don't really *care*. To me, the WSOP (hell, televised poker in general) is just a soap opera with poker. It's fun to have an opinion. I like not liking the guy. Later, I might like liking the guy. As of his last hand of the tourney, he's famous like it or not. He now has the burdeon of that fame -- part of which is to take shots from people on 2+2 who know nothing about who he really is. Boo [censored] hoo.
