anselm 0 Posted May 9, 2006 Share Posted May 9, 2006 Was watching an event from the 2005 WSOP and started thinking about the craziest final table out there. At this one there was...Morgan MachinaHarry DemetriouPerry FriedmanPaul SextonErik SeidelCyndy VioletteFabrice SoulierChris WunderlichBill BlandaProbably not the toughest but just got me thinking. IIRC the 2001 Main Event FT was pretty ridiculous as well. What's the most stacked final table you remember? Link to post Share on other sites

msals11 0 Posted May 9, 2006 Share Posted May 9, 2006 I'd say the greatest TV Final Table was last year's PL Omaha Event where Hellmuth was going for his 10th bracelet.. That had Ivey, Hellmuth, Cunningham, Mr. Omaha Robert Williamson III, and Surrender Sunar... Oops... Blakheart beat me to it, lol Link to post Share on other sites

nell789 0 Posted May 10, 2006 Share Posted May 10, 2006 There was one WPT final table (6 players) that included Daniel Negreanu (who won), Phil Ivey, David Williams, and Josh Arieh.Williams and Arieh, aren't part of the "best in the world" group, put still pretty tough nonetheless.oh, and Poker Superstars, obv.
