Well that\’s all she wrote. It took about an hour and a half, far less than last year, but we have our 2010 WSOP ME champion, Jonathan Duhamel. After picking away at Racener\’s stack for the better part of an hour, Racener was finally forced to go all in with Kd8d. That, however, couldn\’t beat Duhamel\’s AJo. We know who the winners and losers are from this heads up match, but a special edition of winners, losers, and coinflips for you to look at the others:
Winners
- Joesph Cheong – He flamed out hardcore on Saturday, but was seen in the ESPN3 studio giving commentary in the tail-end of heads up. For the way he went out, I\’d have no problem with him just sitting in the stands, so major props to him for coming back to help out.
- Erik Seidel and Dan Harrington – Both gave great speeches in their own ways. Their Hall of Fame inductions are well deserved.
- Jonathan Duhamel\’s Fans – It makes very little sense for the Les Habs fans to chant \”Ole!\” but they are the most electric fans and had been for most of the final table matchup.
Coinflips
- Jack Effel – He was a little less insane today (and yes I acknowledge his job is to keep the crowd interested), but he was still insane. (Maybe that was in the job description)
- The media – There was a lot of \”I don\’t want to be here\” attitude going around, myself included at times. If you can\’t do 2 days, how do you do 6 weeks?
Losers
- Twitter – For imposing a twitter cap that took effect at the exact same time as the last hand of the main event. Guess all those hand updates I was doing screwed me where it counted.
- The interest added to the prize pool – Blame the economy all you want, but why even bother putting the prize pool into T-bills when you make a whopping $450 in the process. Hell, I\’m pretty sure no one would care if Harrah\’s pocketed that.
