Does anyone know what happened to this guy? He seemed to be playing a very solid main event and was something like 3rd in chips when he overplayed an AK and wound up in a race against the guy 2nd in chips and lost out to JJ.I think he took away about $200k but was chipleader for so long it must have been a dissapointment. Anyway, anyone know if he's at this year's WSOP and how he's doing?

John is playing in most of the events I think.I agree, I think Evelyn is taller than John. Just looked funny to me.

you think he overplayed AK against JJ? What are you suppose to do with AK in that situation? Fold?

calling won't be as bad. smash, you going gangta on us?

He should have just called the guy's reraise. I wonder whether or not he knew just how many chips Dean had at that time. It was the move you'd make against a stack of about $800,000, but not for all your chips when you're in third place.

Probbaly only cost him a million or so.No big deal.

consider the inexperience, pressure, long hrs, and lack of sleep. it's really not that horrible. i think he played great.

no he played great, of course luck was included. played 5-10 nl w/ him at lucky chances casino before he was famous. a gus hasen type player, very loose, very creative, and very dangerous. i think if he didn't had such a big score that night, he wouldn't have goin to the WSOP that yr.

for a 21 yr old, 3k he cashed out or whatever his bankroll was is more than enough to hang out in vegas and play a couple satellites. negreanu had about 3k when he won his first bracelet. it's not like his goal was to dominate the wsop or anything.

He's a young good looking white kid, good for TV.He's not in the top 200 ournament players in the world.Call me when he maks the final table of a $10,000 buy in event.(Probaly win it the next 5 years running now that I've posted this)

Aslo I head he beats women with sides of beef in fits of jealous rage.He's a midget too.Also a hermaphrodite.Has a testicle gowing out of his back, too.Also heard he worships Jeffry Dajmer and eats human eyeballs marinated in rams urine before every tournament.Ram Vaswani that is.

he's only 22, 13th for 6 figures and a 1st for 5 figures (tourney at bellagio i believe). that's way better than daniel when he was 22. i didn't say he was an overall great player, i just think he played great at 2004 wsop championship.

now this guy is a true overall great player.

Eats children, too.

[grass Da 55 0]

i wonder if they taste like chicken.

Also heard he joined Al Queda and is hiding Bin Laden in his van.Much like Greenstein, all of his tournamnet winnings go to fund Islamic jihaddists.He hs no belly button.He was grown in a lab and has no soul.

[grass Da 55 0]

yet he still has a better personality than most of the posters here.

I'm not really disagreeing with you. There may be some hands you're thinking of where he got real lucky. But one hand cme to mind to me. When he was just moved to Raymer's table. If I remember right he bet on either the flop or the turn, Raymer rasied and Murphy went all in with something like 3-6. I think he had a heart draw or something. I would have loved to have known his thought process duringthat hand. I mean was it as easy as "I'm chancing my whole tournament on Raymer not catching and me showing everyone that WON'T push me around?"
