I wish Gabe won this tourney.

Almost every single hand Gabe was in (on TV) he played like a total donkey. The KKX stud hi lo hand versus Deeb was a complete joke.

I was shocked to see he was among the chips leaders for a while. But perhaps ESPN only showed his donk hands.

Gabe has become my hero but he played those hands terribly. On PAD he said that he only plays in 2-3 tournaments a year and hasn't played in the main event for a few years. He marveled at how Doyle still plays so many tournaments and said he personally doesn't have the stamina anymore. He look exhausted to me, he didn't even realize that Raymer paired his door card on six in that razz hand. My guess is he probably played some real good poker early, then got lucky and stayed in longer then he should have. Gabe my man, if you read this don't play in anything beyond two days

Yeah obviously missing that paired door card rattled him, then he didn't want to look bad again by paying off on the river. It was sad to watch.
