I'm glad he won...it sounds like much of the $$ will go to worthy purposes rather than getting donked off. Cool guy and worthy champ.

He pwned the first hour of the FT and then held on.

Hopefully he'll attract a lot of religious gamb00lers to poker.

I think it's great he won wearing a Full Tilt hat, it'll be nice to see the newbies come to Full Tilt, after watching the final table in September, instead of poker stars

This type of stupid quote makes my week. Firstly people dont take any notice of what someone's cap says, it certainely wont influence where they deposit $$$ of their cash. They go online, join a forum and ask around.

Secondly roughly 85% imo play more than one site and the bottom 25% play PS and FT. So it doesnt matter whos [censored] cap or tshirt they are wearing.

You think I'm going to go buy the Family Guy DVD's because Kalmar had Stuey on his shirt?

Basically everything you said is wrong.

Well, he might be right about the Stuey part...

Yes, but if they are as religious as Jerry, God will be on their side and you can never win...

I was rooting against this guy last night, but I'm actually glad he won now. Right now poker needs image help, and this guy can certainly help with that. Also, he seems like a good guy. Finally, the other guys played like pussies, and let him run them over...I'm not sure if anyone deserved to win besides him.

How much did Bodog benefit from Gold? (I know they dropped him in January)

I defy you to watch this interview with Jerry Yang on Poker News and not kind of like the guy and think he's good for poker.

Humble, reserved, guy. And he could feel the straight coming, honestly! He FELT it! Seriously, this is great.

[/ QUOTE ]

thanks for this link. this guy is basically perfect imo in terms of being good for the game and also just seeming like a really cool down to earth guy. my only complaint is that he was wearing full tilt stuff instead of poker stars.
