I really hope ZeeJustin wins this

me, too.

I wonder how ESPN will portray him? Many ppl rag on him still and forever will, but hopefully his play will speak for itself.

As sweet and lovable as they do dutch would be my guess.

Yeah, I was gonna say, since they don't mention anything about guys who have literally stolen huge amounts of money like Dutch, Men, and perhaps Doyle, I'm guessing they won't come close to mentioning the ZJ controversy.

Actually it's a mistake, it would probably be good for ratings if they played up some of the Villains of Poker, like Captain Tom and Amarillo.

this is looking up to be a great ESPN final table. looking forward to hellmuth/matusow/negreanu possibility.

Throw Justin in there, if not more the public's benefit, for ours. You think MM would be cold enough to razz him about his past "issues"? (I assume he's aware)

[/ QUOTE ]
I think if MM tried that, ZJ has an easy comeback regarding Mike's cocaine dealing and jail time.

probably in the same light as players like Scott Fischman, whiz kids blabla.

guys that have done significantly more terrible things in real life (dutch boyd) have been treated similarly, so there's little to suggest ESPN will go out out of their way to hint that Justin's past is "tarnished".

Hellmuth still in with 25 players left. 16 cash. 148 of the best players in the world started. I guess Hellmuth plays ok against the best players, huh?

Someone needs to assemble all the Hellmuth quotes from this event. There are some real beauties in there.
