Decisions are easy so I got nothing to worry about short stack Sentai the options are few my fellow Canadian friends make me nervous look at those the unfortunate seat of having the three biggest Stacks to his left including chip leader Jonathan daml action on Michael the grinder M Rocky on the
Jacklinks beef jerky pocket cam Jack 7 off grinder lays it down over to Canadian Matt Jarvis in fifth place from British Columbia with Ace Jack of Hearts the man of a thousand jobs he won the respected Canadian heads up Championship during the break his parents and sister
In the crowd Matt raised from under the gun plus one to just over 1.1 million to filipo cono five deuce and the Italian quietly folds we’ve got five pairs of sunglasses five baseball caps one visor three hoodies and two sets of earrings at this table to the short stack Sentai seven Deuce
He’ll lay that down now Joseph Chung better known by his online screen named saim with 10 six of clubs um 2.6 75 he says rais from the dealer button to almost 2.7 million he says we came to play not to stay du haml in the big
Blind folds King four so now the r raised back to Jarvis you wait four months to play this final table so you usually have a feeling out period and slow action at first Jarvis makes the call both of these guys lost about half their Stacks during 10-h handed Play
Here’s the Flop dece 510 two clubs Chung with a pair of tens and a flush draw Jarvis missed that and he checks this is a new hoodie for Chung he makes the November 9 and suddenly he’s Calvin Klein he checks as well turn card seven of diamonds Chung still ahead with the
Tens Jarvis got no help there top online Pro cell Mitzy helped prepare Jarvis for this Final Table Jarvis bets 3 million boy no feeling out period for Matt Jarvis his parents are nervous his dad Norm Jarvis a former pro golfer he and Matt played 14 H old of golf yesterday
Chong’s friends sporting the one-time saim t-shirts Chong with top pair in the flush draw going to play it cautiously here in the early going Chong makes the call for 3 million the River card is the a of clubs and Chong Rivers his flush and earns the check mark Matt Jarvis
Fired at this pot on the turn if he fires again on the river something’s going to fire back Matt Jarvis but just ace high and he is firing Norman 4.2 million in change oh an ill time Bluff from Matt Jarvis nervous times for the whole Jarvis Clan Action back to Joseph Chun
And Chong raises Matt Jarvis all in Jarvis with no choice now but to fold and his father Norman’s going to wish he could get a mulligan on this hand good down Joseph Jarvis does lay it down to Joseph Chong and Chong gets an early boost to his stack now with almost
34 million he has 15% of the chips in play and a jarring blow to the Canadian he loses more than half his chips and he is now the short sta Jarvis severely hamstr strong must be very selective let’s take a look at the Full Tilt poker.net tournament ticker we can see
Just how much money is at stake tonight get knocked out in ninth and you’ll miss out on the million dooll Club make it into the top five and you’ll be an instant multi-millionaire but nothing compares to the top spot which comes with nearly $9 million and that world championship bracelet why so
Serious I don’t know let’s just have fun huh got any jokes grinder no jokes I I’ll have some I knew the answer to that one I just thought I’d be with Chuck cuz it’ be awesome if you just like broke out some knock knock joke right there it’d be pretty fun
Huh next time we do this you got to have one for me right okay Jason this one’s for you knock knock who’s there a grown man with a mustache who stop telling knock knock jokes when he turned 45 I didn’t see that one coming Matt Jarvis
With his short stack Ace 10 of clubs he’ll lay it down now to 24-year-old Tampa Pro John rner with pocket kings he says a chewing gum keeps him calm he’s superstitious so he chews the same two pieces of double bubble that he starts today with and he
Raises the action to 1.3 million Racer’s mom Janine and sister Patty hoping he can overcome his chip disadvantage tonight Racer’s dad who taught him how to play cards passed away in 2008 he’s playing this main event in honor of him soy wi folds over to the number one seat
Jason Sentai Sentai with a suited Ace as well some sometimes been working with Phil galon Jason says I think I’ll play the short stack as well as anyone I know Jason with that short stack will not play that suit at A’s 10 now to John Dolan king queen off from Bonita Springs
Florida he’s got the second biggest stack at the table how much you start the him John almost 18 on our holiday card family update 5 years ago Dolan’s mom Kathy wrote John’s become very good as new hobby poker I keep thinking one day I’ll turn on the World Series and
See him sitting at the final table well she and the family are here in person watching him at the biggest final table so a couple of Florida boys will see this flop it’s 107 Queen racer still ahead with pocket kings Dolan caught a pair of queens when we were on the money bubble
Rner had less than 15 big blinds left at the start of day eight Dolan was 24th out of 27 players so there’s always hope both check to the turn it’s a third heart nine of Hearts rner still ahead Dolan with a flush draw both with the
Same St great draw and now Dolan bets out 1775 million Dolan’s got a straight flush draw I’d go all in that’s why I’m sitting here wearing a seat belt rner with his pocket kings and that draw makes the call Dolan probably thinks he’s good but he’s going to need some
Help River Card Deuce of Clubs Dolan misses all his draws rner with the check mark Dolan first to act top pair on the board he’s reaching again John Dolan is reaching three and a half million Dolan thinks he’s good and this is a tough call for racer straight and flush possibilities on that
Board can he get rner off the hand no he can’t rner makes the call and Dolan’s Queens will come up second best to Racer’s pocket kings smart thinking double bubble might be big trouble for the rest of this table raer picks up a few million from the bigger
Stack of John Dolan Who falls below 43 million chips John rner takes a pot and we’re just getting started at the main event final table where the battle for the bracelet and $9 million rages on Welcome Back to the Rio where the pen and Teller theater is packed with poker
Fans eager to Crown a new world champion as we check out the chip count we see it is bookended by Canadians Montreal’s Jonathan daml still on top with 30% of the chips in play while Vancouver’s Matt Jarvis has only 4% and he is the short stack but remember at one point last
Year Joe cata had less than 2% of the chips in play and he became the main event Champion Jarvis sits with just over 8 million chips he certainly has a long uphill fight to keep his main event going tonight but that’s nothing compared to the battle his father Norm
Has been waging every single day my dad is a professional golfer he played on the Canadian tour I caded for him for I think 10 events kind of brought us closer together he’s amazing guy and a real role model for me it was late April that we found out that my dad had
Cancer it’s mostly in the throat he he has a really tough time swallowing and because that he he can’t eat right now during this time I was doing whatever I could to repair for the the main event when I found out I just kind of was like okay let’s throw this aside
And um you know deal with helping my my dad get better but uh he pushed me through it he said um there’s not much you can do here go down and do what you love and um follow your dream kind of like what he did with golf attack this and um and
I’ll be attacking my cancer back home I said Matt I think it’s your turn one of these times you you have to go to this tournament I said if anything major goes wrong I’ll phone you you can come home but I want you to go it took a few days before I realized
That if I’m going to be down here I got to make the most of it and once I figured that out never look Back it was just fantastic just having watch him hear him we were constant touch a lot of people have come up to me and said um wow I’m really glad you’re doing so great I think it’s really giving your dad something to be excited about man’s provided uh a lot of life
During a time when there wasn’t much he’s made tremendous progress already uh he’s got really good prognosis back from the doctors and he’s a fighter I’m very very proud of him of course Norm Jarvis obviously very proud of his son as well and even prouder to be here at this Final Table
To cheer him on back to action at this championship table action on Matt Jarvis this is the second time in three years two Canadians have made the November 9 Scott Montgomery and darus suaro in 08 Jarvis and Jonathan daml this year under the gun Jarvis folds queen8 rner with eight
Trey no thank you of course Filip oo trying to become the first Italian to win the main event he folds to Soy win with a short stack King Trey won’t play here over to Jason Sentai also with a short stack needing some magic jack 10 of clubs he skipped the main event two
Years ago because he was getting married that was pretty much a coin flip from the hijack seat centai with a raise to a,1 125,000 now Dolan on the button with Two Jacks Dolan clean shaven no Shades you’d let him date your sister did you start with exactly Jason like right at 11
Roughly I mean it’s very close Dolan vaulted from 2 million to 46 million on day eight and he’s going to re ra it to over 25 million daml folds his small blind to the grinder in the big Ace King he believes in the opposite rule if he thinks negative positive happens if he
Thinks positive bad happens so he’s predicting an eighth or Ninth Place finish in the main event the 2, 525,000 I like the opposite rule on I want to work with you the rest of my life grind is going to re ra it of course Mama grinder his wife Lily and three brothers
Are nearby they’re always nearby for bets it to 85 million and that has his wife Lily M Rocky nervous as usual Sentai folds now to Dolan with those tricky pocket Jacks Dolan might figure the worst hand grinder might have is Ace King with that forb what it could
Even be Aces or Kings or Queens is wild good for me I don’t know Dolan unsure with the Jacks perhaps reluctant to give grinder any chances should Jon lose his hand yeah Jax can be the Grim Reaper of hold him you hold if you fool you’re going to hear a big grinder
Roar boy do they know how to Roar while Dolan’s family’s looking for a reason to cheer if Dolan’s feeling the drama he doesn’t show it John Dolan lays down the Jacks bring on the grinder [Applause] roar oh show it show it one time grinder doesn’t show
But he takes that pot he’s showing his short stack chops his Rocky’s loving it Frank cassella is in the house grinder can tie him for player of the year if he wins it all tonight Mike the mouth making himself known grer grer grer grer gr if Mike the mouth or the Grinders
Ever move into your neighborhood you might want to invest in some noise reduction headphones 2/3 of all main event entrance came from the United States 2third of our final table do as well Michael Mis rocki with 65 off suit and he will not play Matt Jarvis says no thanks rner
Folds to phip O condo who’s been quiet so far tonight he lays it down to the 37-year-old amateur soyn who played his way into this den of Poker thieves Ace King director of operations for a medical supplies distributor company I think he’s just shuffling papers all day
He’s on the button with no action in front of him and he moves all in for just over 72 million and that immediately gets the attention of soy’s friend and boss John lasso and the more than 100 red pla soy wi supporters now in the small blind Jason Sentai with two
Queens how much is it Jason’s friend and poke coach Bill galfond in attendance Sentai barely has win out Chi these two short stacks destined to clash here I’m all in and Sentai moves all in for almost 9 million Jason’s parents on the left his wife Jessica in the middle

Could do it too so with soy’s Exit 8 millionaires now sit at this table and a quest for the $9 million top prize this is Bill this is Jeff and this is the Vault that contains the biggest prize in poker nearly $9 million needs an owner but for now it’s in very safe
Custody back at the Rio for the World Series of Poker main event final table the November has lost one player we’re down to eight thanks to Jason sentai’s elimination of soy win I’m officially the oldest guy at the table everyone left is in their 20s be proud of that
He’s the oldest at 29 and older and wiser than the young player he was when he took the poker World by storm in ‘ 05 and ‘ 06 with over 5 million in tournament winnings but it was the grind that followed which helped lead to the Grinder’s greatest
Success in 2005 I mean everything went my way yes it seems like nothing think could stop me this Rocky doubles up I won 1.85 million I was spending money on nice cars they spent 175,000 on RV and then about like maybe six or seven homes
It was a fun ride and I was just enjoying myself well people talk about my 056 and then they’re like what happened to 0708 I didn’t have losing years but I just I didn’t have those million-dollar scores you know we started a family and and it was a little tougher to you know
To travel as much and when you don’t play you don’t have results and then the market just shot right down I got you know pretty much beat up you know I bought everything super high and I had a tax lean bad Investments for closures and uh as a father you know your main
Priority is to you know provide food and shelter for your children and how to do well this world series I couldn’t ask for a better series can the grinder be stopped I mean it’s been an unbelievable run I win the PLAYERS Championship make two more Championship final tables and uh made

Top Lily predicted her husband would have a great World Series and in the wake of tax and foreclosure problems 2010 has been a year of redemption for Michael Ms rocki with $2 million paydays Michael in fifth place right now on the pokerstars.net chip count daml and Dolan
Still on top cono and Jarvis are on the bottom and Jason Sentai continues to climb up and away from his formerly short stack with only eight players remaining a new oversized chip is in play it’s worth a half million and while it may be red white and blue the player

And filipo doing his best Hollywood suddenly he’s Roberto bonini in that’s what we expected Pondo all in for almost 15 million and that puts his cheering section including his mom and sister on edge now Chung with the pocket Jacks pocket Jacks with two raises now behind Joseph Chung does Chong want to stick
Around Joseph Chung says goodbye to the Jacks smart lay down now daml he makes the call and that is music to the ears of phip oo and his supporters unless he gets unlucky felipo Kano about to take a chunk out of the chip leader Duo’s parents on the left
Showing concern felipo on his feet looking for a double up the Italian cheering section noisy as we expect while the Canadians are Stoico studied singing when he was young now breaking into his Allin song daml not enjoying the two and here’s the Flop Trey 610 daml now almost throwing dead pao’s Aces Standing Tall philipo’s mom Maria and sister Marta they know what 99 to1 means the adrenaline junky getting no

The final Jack Links beef jerky wildcard hand of 2010 L let’s facing my record ain’t good I couldn’t predict the weather if I were standing in the rain but I’m going to hit a walk-off Homer here and get this one right short stacked Matt Jarvis with Ace Queen he’s
Become a bit of a celebrity in the Vancouver area a raise now to a million 425 now this whole thing is going to blow up in my face if I have to figure out F leipoo luckily he’s not the jack Wild Card hand he does fold gron folded
To the button Joseph Chong he has the wildcard hand well if Chung raises Jarvis who made an early position raise from the short stack I’m going to put Chung from the buttton on a big hand going to raise Chong does announce Ray R he loves to put pressure on his
Opponents Chong makes it over 3 and2 million his friends are wondering what he has also I’ve got to put Chong on a big suited Ace or a really big pocket pair now on the small blind John Dolan with pocket Jacks with a raise and a r
RA in front of him nothing good can come from that nothing good can ever come from pocket Jacks but Dolan does make that call this could get messy for Dolan duam will F at his big blind so now back to Jarvis with Ace Queen and two big Stacks
Chong and Dolan already in the hand Jarvis succumbs to the added pressure and fold so heads up between two players each with chip Stacks worth over 30 million the Flop nine trade 10 Dolan gets no help with his Jacks if I’m Dolan I’m going to bet and see where I
Stand he checks nothing good can come from that nothing L nothing Joseph Chung now checks as well Chung might be slow playing a really big over pair trying to trap Dolan turn card now a Queen of Clubs Dolan adds an up and down straight draw but if you’re
Dolan you’re looking at an overcard two clubs and three to a straight out there if I’m him I would check fold he does check well he agrees with me Chung is slow playing a monster well Chung checks his well Dolan should fold in the dark
River card is a jack Dolan now with a set but could that card be any worse for pocket Jackson I mean in the history of Poker no card could be worse for pocket Jacks Dolan hits his set but that card completes a flush and puts four cards to
A straight on the board Dolan does check he’s halfway there Chung either has a bigger set a straight or a flush if he has anything less than that then I’m a monkey Uncle with large ears you’re two for two good for you Chong 8.5 8 and2 million and that has
Dolan squirming well no way Dolan can call even though he’s got the set he called a rra pre- flop he got no information from a usually aggressive player on the flop in the turn then gets a potsize bet on the river very fishy a big moment here for Dolan he’s got to
Fold fold it John call no he makes a call Chong shows ace1 for the nut flush he wins the jacklinks beef jerky Wild Card hand and Norman you were right ship the beef jerky Dolan’s family is crushed the nightmare for John Dolan continues at this Final Table he’s lost almost half
His chips already tonight while Joseph Chong has replace Dolan as the second biggest stack so Dolan Falls from second to Fourth to HL a top to leaderboard Matt Jarvis has moved out of the basement but he still has only about half the chip average despite the disparity between the first and eighth
Place players it’s still anyone’s ball game John Dolan folds over to the chip leader Jonathan daml Jack tenof his drill every day of the main event breakfast and a little Shadow Boxing when he gets to the poker room then he puts on his hoodie I did that exact same
Routine on my third honeymoon Dam thrives on opening pots and he does raise to 1 Point 4 million M Rocky with Ace Queen of Diamonds his final table Mantra is I don’t care so much on the line but to reduce pressure he says I don’t care grinder played very little
Live poker before coming to the World Series this year but then went on to play 42 of 57 events and he makes the call here Jarvis with pocket nines he says the sunglasses allow him to get into his own Zone when the shades are on he’s
Fearless come on Jarvis going for it all all in for just over 14 million and that brings his dad nor Jarvis to his feet Jarvis with about 23 big blinds left cono in the small blind with 86 off he will not play that Jason centai now with the short stack Queen
Jack and he folds so the ray back to damel no thank you how much more is that it’s for more than half of M rocki’s Stack does grinder want to take that much of a risk on Ace Queen chasing Player of the Year chasing history and chasing $9
Million a critical moment for M Rocky who needs almost 13 million to call I call and he does make that call Jarvis now at risk but a lot on the line for the grinder as well and now Matt Jarvis’s hope of becoming the first Canadian Main Event Champion hangs in
The balance Matt Jarvis ahead right now his family hoping he can in his main events day Jarvis at risk now here’s the Flop Queen a queen M Rocky flops trip queens and grinder shoves Matt Jarvis towards the exit Matt’s family is stunned he seems to be taking it Well all right the turn card oh and there’s the nine scull for Jarvis what a turet of events oh my goodness where else but the main event can you find such a wave of changing emotion grinder now on the verge of becoming the short stack Matt Jarvis all but gone looks like he’s
Going to stick around Norm Jarvis hoping Matt can fade disaster on the river small card such a world such a final table sweat grinder would need an ace queen or eight to knock out Matt Jarvis it’s an ace oh mama no way it’s not possible is
It and the roller coaster ride comes to an end for Jarvis what was an almost certain double up was now an eighth place finish dad cannot believe it grinder getting absolutely swarmed by his friends and family while Jarvis gets some well- wishes from his competitors so many
Emotional ups and downs for this family so many ups and downs in this main event for Matt Jarvis the Mis rocki Clan continues their celebration grinder now third in chips while on the other side of the stage Matt getting consolation from his mom and his dad Jarvis wins over $1
Million for eighth place but more importantly shares a moment with those most important to him Matt Jarvis and family will now head at home as the November 9 is now down to 7 back inside the Rio where the Mis rocki contingent is still a buzz after that incredible hand we all just
Witnessed grinder hitting the full boat on the river Norman had an eerily familiar feel to it back in 2003 Chris Money Maker had Ace Queen and Phil Ivy had pocket nines the board played out in nearly identical fashion and the same ace of spades on the River gave Money
Maker Queens full of Aces to eliminate Ivy’s nines full of Queens in 10th Place grinder would certainly like to mimic Money Maker success from 03 here tonight action on Joseph Chong 64 of diamonds he’s got two degrees he’s not using one in Psychology and one in math
Well I guess those come in handy in poker from under the gun plus one with six4 of diamonds Chong raises to a million 325 to H with a duu he says he will dance and box if he wins the main event I did the same thing after my
First divorce du hble the chip leader and lone Canadian left with a re ra to 3.1 million his sister there on the left along with their aunt well this isn’t Generation Y it’s generation why not three bet yeah absolutely M Rocky lays down his button so now back to Chong with the ray
From daml and look at the hand he raised with from utg plus1 and now Chung thinking about calling the three bet with the those babies okay well he described to us his style as spewy and he makes the call I’m half surprised he didn’t forb bet it with the 6’4 so two
Of the big Stacks see a flop of four a 10 dama with top pair Chong with bottom pair so Chong with a pair of fours out of position and he checks it I wonder how the Supreme Court would adjudicate stuff if three of the nine justices were
Hoodies duo with the Pair of Aces makes it three and a quarter million now Chung with just a pair of fours he makes the call lot of game in Joseph Chong lot of game in Jonathan daml to 14 million in the pot of six on the turn gives Chong two pair to take
The lead and he checks it Chong thinking check Rays I imagine du won’t let him Chong looking to trap the big pair River card is a jack of diamond Chong with the check mark with sixes and fours yeah you play that type of hand baby suited connectors
Hoping you can get lucky and trap a big pair and trap a big stack Chong makes it 8 and A4 million Johnson daml with Pair of Aces no kicker with that board he’s got to figure the aces might be good chun’s cheering section includes poker pros and a lot of
Friends daml needs over 8 million to call I call and that’s what he does two pair and two pair for Joseph Chung will win that big pot and for the first time at this final table we have a new chip leader Joseph Chong I play bad so Chong with 60
Million now leads the way du haml now regretting that call against Chong on the river but everyone in the poker world is wondering what he was thinking when he made the call on day eight that would Propel him to the chip lead in the main event That I’ve been thinking about this sun for like 4 months now Jonathan daml looks down at pocket Jacks every people like who want to talk to me like the first thing they they talk about is that now to Matt Affleck hello pocket aces well I thing is pre flop when he
Reraises me most of the time he has nothing so that’s why I decided that my Jacks were like the nuts flop of 1097 affle still good I never put him on the a as a Kings for me it was more of a did he flop a set of 10 and nines basically
That was the two hands I was worried about big pot now and we could have a big change in the pecking order and I said to myself if I win the hand I’m going to be the chip leader by far even if I lose the hand I still have like 30
Big blinds to play with wi a huge decision for duab kind of said let’s go let’s gamble a call and makes the call for me it’s not just about making the November 9th for me it’s about winning Affleck one card away from putting a huge hurt on DL the river carard oh is
An eight all the room was like oh a crushing bow to Matt Affleck that was like not sure what was happening and then I just realized this is my tournament I have chips the thing is about luck it’s something you cannot control for me I try to think about what I can
Control I guess it’s time to win right now the dam plays hockey four times a week his dream was to play in the National Hockey League instead he just bangs people around on the poker table seven players remain in the chase for that world championship bracelet and the
Nearly $9 million first prize and right now Joseph Chong the man out front at the 2010 main event action will begin on Jason Sentai centai looks down at Ace Queen he backpacked through Europe when he was 20 I also backpacked pack most of Europe but I took a
Suitcase Sentai from under the gun and chips in hand with a raise to a million 350 Chong 64 again his new favorite hand suited no not this time wrong suit Dolan folds as well to daml now with Jack nine he folds over to Mis rocki on the
Button with King eight of clubs during the Break grinder went to the UK France Hungary and Austria he essentially conquered Europe This Rocky calls John rner lays it down cono now in the big blind queen 10 of Hearts cono already lives in Europe so he doesn’t have to
Visit no he doesn’t 1 million 300 conal needs 3/4 of a million to call from the big blind that’s what he does three players will see a flop and three hands I don’t like here’s the Flop 54 Deuce nobody pairs up cti’s ace high is best the first person even to
Motion towards the pot could take it right now Sentai does have a wheel draw cono checked his nothing STI checked also grinder sees an open door but he checks turn card now is a king M Rocky pairs his King to take the lead conil with a flush
Draw filipo with chips in hand 2 million n condo’s favorite book is The Count of Monte Cristo that’s an adventure novel and this hand is now an adventure the adventure is over for Jason centai he folds his Ace to M Rocky with top pair cono getting frisky with
Squad usio I was wondering when that was going to happen two of the brothers Miz Rocky looking closely on those boys have got to find work Michael now makes the call for 2.9 and Filippo’s got to hate that call the River card tray of Spades the grinder gets the check mark with his
Pair of Kings Senti folded an ace that would have given him a wheel yeah if you’re still in this hand and you don’t have an ace you can’t like your cards very much cono looking at his stack and he puts out almost 4 and half million on
The bluff Norman filipo fires a second Barrel here on the river and that shot is heard all around this pen and tellar theater is Rocky checking out the smaller stack of cono cono on a slippery slope here and he does have much slope to work with grinder lays down the best
Hand and cono throws down the bluff and just when it looked like felipa only plays Aces he shows us he has other cards up his sleeve grinder takes a hit nice and acknowledges The Savvy play from Italian Filip oo and the M Rockies look like Nordstrom’s just
Closed its doors before they got there filipo cono moves up a notch on the leaderboard to fourth place history could still be made with an Italian world Champion time now for straight from the pros brought to you by pokerstars.net during the firstand of heads up at the 2009 main event final table Joe and Darin Moon immediately clashed D Moon open limp the button you figure when they limp most time it’s pretty weekend
So yeah I was excited to see nines raise from Kata to 32 million Bo just calls with his pocket Queens here’s the fly Trey King dece it’s not really a bad flop for my hand Joe first to act that’s 3 and half million it’s a tough spot
When a guy likes to play back at you a lot 10 million now the raise from Darin Moon there’s about 6 and 1 half to call so I’m getting decent odds for how many chips are in the pot the turn card is an ace Kata does check the ace does not
Slow him down that’s 10 million it’s really unlikely for him to have a king cuz why is he going to bet the turn with the King and I didn’t really put him on Ace either because he limped in so I thought if he was bluffing the that’s
It’s a great card to BL off because the board changes I don’t think Joe is going anywhere with his pocket NES and he does make the call we’re going to see a river card it’s another king Kata checks again and Darin checks I was really surprised with the queens and that’s when I
Learned that you played a little differently than I analyzed in the hand and I was going to have to adjust and think about hands differently throughout the course heads up it does take constant adjustments to win any tournament and the main event in particular filipo condo is just the kind
Of wildcard player you have to adjust for and the grinder just found that out the hard way but what a job grinder has done remember he was down to seven big blinds on day eight grinder with queen8 off they’re in the muck now John rner looking for a critically needed double
Up he folds cono after that bluff of Mis rocki has 86 he won’t Bluff with those Jason Sentai now King seven off off I’m all in and Sentai shoves for almost 10 million just 16 big blinds and only the big blind behind them Ace n of clubs for Chong I
Call that one’s bad yeah and Sentai all in and in bad shape against Jose of Chong Chong’s ace9 almost a two to one advantage his parents rooting for him to extend his chip lead Jason Sentai said the toughest six months of his poker career came just before the main event
But what a main event it’s been for the Minnesota pro Jason’s wife Jessica looking for her husband to double up all right here’s the Flop Jack six try Chun still leads with ace high Sentai on the ropes sentai’s done a great job to get this far at the start of day seven he
Was 69th in chips out of 78 players you’re right he has been the poster boy for hanging around in the main event and see what happens the turn card ace of diamonds A Pair of Aces for Chong but that gives Cent a flush draw a terrible card diamonds got a sweat Jessica Sentai
Praying for a diamond see a diamond Jason Sentai has to have a diamond or he will be our seventh place finisher and there’s his diamond oh at this final table it’s never over till it’s over and boy Joseph Chong knows how to take a tough beat and stride remember
The fipo cono run a runner hand on day eight still playing none of Jason’s Final Table opponents wanted to see him with chips but this solid Minneapolis pro has more ammunition now and they’re loving it in the upper reaches of the Penn and Teller theater I think the
Sentai section is tossing Penn and Teller among themselves so Jason Sentai doubles up to stay alive he moves up to sixth place and knocks Joseph Chong down to Third thir in the process Jonathan Duo back on top while John rner is now the short stack with only 6% of the chips in
Play the blinds are up to 4 800,000 100,000 anti John Dolan started this table second and chips with pocket sevens he’s got a shorter stack now and he says he will be patient if he needs be he’s in fifth place from under the gun plus one a rais to a million 850 Ace
King for daml after making the November 9 he bought himself a new out I hope he drives more carefully than he plays poker and daml doing what daml loves to do a re ra to 4 million 275 and the folks in the Canadians jerseys love that action now miss Rocky with Two
Jacks and two raises in front of him well you know how I hate pocket Jacks Norman but I trust them in the hands of grinder he’s the second biggest stack at the table right behind daml Robert Miz Rocky wondering what his brother’s up to he’s got a lot of those red white and
Blue chips a r ra to almost 11 million from grinder bro you are an animal bro mom go down yeah the safety of Mama grinder always comes first raer now on the button King Nine he’ll watch this from a distance cono with Ace Jack another day Jason Sentai a deuce of diamonds
Well we’ve seen three of Dam’s outs get folded away so now back to John Dolan and his two sevens and he’ll fold what you started with about 40 daml has grinder out chipped unless he puts grinder on Aces or Kings he’s going to want to see a flop a tense
Moment for the two cheering sections and the principles involved daml needs about 6 and5 million to call but he lays down the Ace King and seeking history what a climb for Michael Ms rocki from Seven big blinds on day eight to the top stack at the final table history is unfolding the grinder
Takes the lead with only seven players left he is inching ever closer to capturing an unprecedented World Series Trifecta it’s time to release the green it’s time to unlock the vault open the cage and start filling the bags with nearly $9 million Brick by Brick 10 grand at a
Time welcome back to this 2010 World Series of Poker main event final table presented by Jack Links beef jery seven players still hunting for the championship bracelet and $9 million chip leader chip leader means they have you have you have the most chips in the tournament learn something new every day
Grinder was once down to 12 million at this final table and is now at 65 million I got to go I love you I love you grinder talking with his son Paul Jonathan damel the former chip leader in second place now but he had been down below 36 million on the jacklinks beef
Jerky pocket cam pocket aces daml said he was going to be aggressive but careful he’s been both but not as maniacal as in the past a raise to a milli 750 what’s at stake for grinder winning Player of the Year Players Championship and Main Event title in the
Same year plus he would become number one all time in tournament earnings grinder folds his button over to his buddy John rner who played with grinder for the first time a few years ago he’s got pocket T he was so impressed with Grinder’s play he patterned his own
Style after Michael and they fear each other at the table so they try to avoid each other rner makes a call for a million 350 more now to Philip oio King seven of Spades with the shades he now looks like across between Dario Maneri and sfia Loren and he makes the
Call for 950 more so so a three-way flop rer with the 10 to HL with the aces here’s the Flop it is Queen five Queen to hble aces up now he still leads cono with a flush draw rner way behind rner first to act and he checks cono checks his flush draw daml
In the driver’s seat people rarely get a free card with daml in that seat 2,150,000 racer knows du haml is very capable of a continuation bet here with nothing racer certainly might think his pocket tends are good rer has chips and he will stick with daml I actually thought he might
Even raise there to see if his two pair were good at this point so now to filipo cono four Spades to a flush King High I’m and cono moves all in oh and Mama Mia is Mama Maria and sister Marta and a table full of gamblers fipo cono
Showing the most gamble taking a stand with 25 big blinds left this is what got filipo here he had tieden up some when we got the 10-h handed but now we’re seeing his Moxy now it’s daml feeling the pressure and he folds the aces wow
Kio just got Dam to fold the best hand can he get racer to fold the next best hand rner looks suspicious of filipo filipo not moving a muscle his sister Marta obviously nervous Rayner’s mom Janine on her feet again John rner lays it down he’s not going to show I know want
He cono even hadit grinder fool cono not showing anything and I assume on the inside he’s singing Walking on Sunshine the shove semi Bluff Works he’s in third place with over 30 million and the former chip leader wonders if he’s been had action now on the current chip
Leader Michael M Rocky and he folds by the way long we’re so fortunate to be here I can’t help but think back to our first year doing this 2003 air viiti finished sixth he passed away earlier this year his cigar and his personality are sorely missed well said Norman Jason
Sentai with Ace King he’s an online poker coach with friend and fellow Pro Phil galon to helped prep Jason for this Final Table galon lives in Manhattan Sentai lives in Minneapolis it’s an internet poker romance Sentai with a raise to more than 1.8 million Joseph Chong on the button with pocket T Chong
Became friends with Pro Brian mikon who’s helped him dealing with TV cameras in the media gez Joseph I can help you more than mikon the icon and I charge less Chong going to repop it to 4,950 th000 Dolan and Dam now back to Sentai he says Let’s Dance for it all I
Call and Chong makes the call we have a 3 4 million chip pot with Senti at risk whoops two likable young Pros just go about their business on the biggest stage Jason’s family has been through the short stack ringer there I’m like yes I cross your range oh yeah
Obviously I don’t know like how do you have 10 there I know seriously Jack or something right I mean like kind of we both kind of got screwed there I think Jason STI hanging around as a short stack for a good while it’s here it Jason the former engineer
Playing to the crowd he knows how to do that well he sings and plays guitar in his rock band Suburban hero flip it up let’s do it Ace King against Chong’s pocket 10 here’s the Flop and it’s king king queen trip Kings for Jason Jason’s cheering section hopeful Joseph’s parents
Thinking one time for their son Chong once again dealing with adversity matter of fact Sentai gets a Lifeline turn card is a jack Sentai still way ahead but he must sweat the river as Chong just picked up a straight draw Chong would need a 10 or a nine to knock out Jason
Sentai the River card is a nine Chong spikes the winner the river Madness does not stop and that straight delivers the knockout blow to Jason Sentai and the normally Ultra composed Joseph Chong comes to life centai came in as the short stack but the $1.3 million should ease the pain guess I’ll
Have a bigger recording budget for the next Suburban Hero album he said he would play the short stack well he did he walks away disappointed but certainly not disappointed in his play well even without this Main Event Victory Jason sentai’s exit is a triumphant one and now that Dame dangerous Joseph Chong has
Climbed into second place with only six players remaining at the main event final table the grinder is still the top dog with 30% of the chips in play Du haml wants the chip leader sits in third John Dolan who started the day second and chips is now the short stack with
Just over 13 million six players left for the world championship and three are from Florida it’s a sunshine state why is everyone sitting inside playing poker one of the Floridians John Dolan from Bonita Springs Florida with five of diamonds all in and he says that’s
Enough I’m all in Doan down to 13 Big lines he has not had any traction at this Final Table 12 and a half Jonathan daml with pocket fours all right call and he makes the call Dolan at risk with two overcards and diamonds he’s looking for some renewed hope Dolan started this Final
Table second in chips he has had nothing much to work with all night so it’s a pot of over 27 million Dolan and his family have seen little go right tonight John facing elimination while the French Canadians look for their man to get us down to five Canadians are visiting shouldn’t I
Just try to blend in a little better all right John Dolan at risk the Flop Jack 76 All Hearts Dolan comes up empty Dolan the former poker dealer at a dog track in Florida needs this dealer to bring him some luck in a hurry M’s pocket pair still ahead turn card nine
Of Hearts a good card for Dolan all right there’s a flush draw out there plus he picked up a gut shot straight draw on Ryan if a heart comes they’ll chop the pot if it’s a 58 or queen Dolan takes it all otherwise he is gone and
It’s a tray of clubs do H’s pocket fours are golden and he knocks off John [Applause] Dolan a great run ends uneventfully for the 24-year-old Pro Dolan will collect almost $1.8 million but I’m sure John expected much more from this Main Event what a boost for duam L those are some happy
Canadians and one unhappy Floridan John Dolan makes his way to the exit an important knockout for daml he’s now in third place in the race for almost $9 million we’re now five- handed at the final table welcome back to the Rio where from a starting field of over 7,300 players
Were down to the final five one of those Michael M Rocky will win a share of Player of the Year honors if he can hang on to his chip lead and win the main event Michael looks down at Ace eight of diamonds and raises the action to 22
Million so the chip leader putting pressure on the short stack his bu and fellow Floridian John rer with Ace King the big Ace for the short stack small and he moves all in his sister Patty looks like she can’t take much more of this Racers all in for just over 12
Million Chong and Dam pass up grinder and racer try to keep out of each other’s way Mama grinder sitting quietly so close jeez grinder you knocked your own brother out at the poker players championship well how hard is it to knock out your friend call he
Hasn’t even offered you a piece of gum I bet it would be for nearly 1 a grinder stack if he was up against a big pocket pair he’d be a two to1 dog and he’s getting about two to1 on a call here yes that is Patrick Antonius when
You see Patrick and white I just think wedding Bell’s for us back to the business at hand grinder makes the call to but rner at risk but rner will have M Rocky dominated grinder decides to gamble against his buddy what what I don’t know Lily M Rocky looking nervous
Racer’s crew hoping he avoids elimination oh that’s how you spell racer John rner at risk against his friend Michael mcki here’s the Flop dece 10 Deuce race nurse King kicker keeps him ahead the paired board presents chop pot possibilities racer chewing away hoping the board stays clean for him turn C oh
Is the king rner with the Pair of Kings ends the hand and doubles up apparently if you chew hard enough good things happen Patrick antonus in Grinders cheering section they don’t like that one bit John rner alive and doubles to almost 27 million the grinder losing a
Chunk of his chips he’s now in second place Joseph Chong is the top dog once again as for rner he’s still the short stack but one of only five men still drawing for the main event title as always raisner working the gum one night um after the dinner break I
Just threw a piece of gum in my mouth and around day 600 or 7 that’s when I went on a huge chip run welcome John racer to the top of the leaderboard I’m very superstitious so I noticed like chew on gum it’s helping me with the Tails and my breathing and I’m running
Over the tables the Racer’s running so good maybe it is the chewing gum what’s funny is that I would always chew the same two pieces the whole day might sound disgusting but that’s what I would do every morning I wake up put two pieces of double bubble in my mouth chew
It all day that’s how you get to the final Nine and racer said he grabbed a handful of double bubble from his counter at home before he left to come to the November 9th action on Michael M Rocky second and chips eight dece off and he’ll fold to racer Ace Queen of Spades he’s the anti Oprah she’s afraid of
Chewing gum he Embraces it and from under the gun Plus won a raise to 2.3 million cono folds now Joseph Chong King five from the small blind and he’ll fold that daml in the big Ace King the adrenaline junkie has kept a tight lid on his game tonight pretty much only playing premium
Hands du haml turns the screws and R raises rner all in Rayner’s family confident they Bo will do the right thing well as we know the right thing would be to fold but Racer’s got a big suited Ace five- handed and he’s short stacked I call
John does call all in and he’ll see his big Ace has run into a bigger ace at the most critical time indeed John rner is dominated and may be looking at his last hand of this Main Event Norman I don’t know how rner could have gotten away
From that big Ace just unlucky DL had the ace that trumps his Ace the racer might not be chewing gum much longer rner will have to deliver the bad beat to stick around duo with an opportunity here to grab this final table by the throat grinder a very interested
Spectator his friend’s tournament life on the line the Flop Queen for eight rer flips the tables on the Canadian Pro can just shake his head in dismay John rer has life for the hockey playing Duo that was like a cross check to the teeth race now trying to hang on turn C
Jack racer still in front du with a Broadway draw as we have seen at this crazy main event final table it ain’t over till it’s over one card to come Racer’s mom chewing on her fist for out of five Dennis surveyed agreed that chewing on your fist may not influence
The River card racer looking to dodge a king or a 10 to double up can he pull off the upset yes he can John rer secures the double up to Jonathan daml I might have swallowed my gum on that one if I were him du haml absorbs that blow he’s now the short
Stack and John rner celebrates he is now in third place after his Allin call rer had to figure he was a goner but he had luck on his side and daml has to be second guessing himself maybe he should have taken his pack of Bubblicious off
The counter this morning after all so we will continue five- handed at the pen and Teller theater where the fans have really been treated to some exciting poker tonight all five players left here guaranteed at least $2 million Queen five for racer under the gun he folds
Cono lays it down Joseph Chung likewise to daml in the small blind just took that big hit in the previous hand he has Ace nine off I don’t know what D hamel’s tilt factor is line but if I’m him I don’t play this hand just walk away take
A brief respit but dama will ignore your advice and make a raise to 22 million M Rocky in the big blind with pocket trays all in and he R raises dama all in well he knows Dam just took the big hit and probably doesn’t want to play another hand immediately so dama
With another big decision may be still steaming from that beat he took I’d walk away I wouldn’t call here because you wouldn’t want to be swept out of here in two straight hands he started the day as the dominating chip leader now he may put himself at risk it’s like the old
Adage it takes 15 years to grow a tree just 15 minutes to chop it down D Ham’s come too far and done too much to see it all gone in two hands D HL calls all in with his Ace n and he’ll have to come
From behind in a race to beat the pocket pair do H fans sense the importance of this moment and it doesn’t look like Lily’s feeling too good about the small pocket pair I don’t like that I don’t like that yeah both my suits it’s a big moment for grinder he could lose half
His stack here while the onetime chip leader du haml looks like he’s about to lose his mind so here we go with Duo the former chip leader at risk and he pairs his [Applause] nine Canada strikes back and now Milwaukee nation is tottering grinder was going for the kill but now he’s the
One in trouble yellon grinder looking at becoming the short stack if he loses here the turn card now is another nine for duhl and grinder dream of sending daml back to Canada heading further down the drain same thing grinder chitchatting with his buddy rner a waiting the
River come on one time three three from the heavens let’s go grinder looking for a two outter this Rocky has to have a three to send Jonathan to HL home the river cards on Jack and du hamel’s set of nines will not only keep him around but Propel him
Back over 50 million duam took on the floorida Buddies he got unlucky against one to become the short stack on the very next hand he got lucky against the other to survive the Canadian is still fighting in his shot for World Series history Duo back in second place grinder
Once the chip leader now the short stack after losing half his chips and maybe his main event Mojo meanwhile the money is about to move nearly $9 million in $100 bills weighs close to 200 lb it will take six men and 12 bags to carry it to the pen and tellar theater but
Only one man will get to take it [Applause] home now it’s time for deal me in brought to you by full til poker.net at the 2006 main event final table Alan Cunningham had to dip into his well of Poker knowledge when he got tangled up in a hand against future Champion Jamie
Gold I’m in the big blind I have Ace Jack and Jamie gold raises everyone’s folded to me I decided to play just a normal pot against them and called The Flop 8 109 a pair of eights for gold Cunningham picks up a straight draw now
I check to him it’s sort of a normal play to check to an aggressive razor and now he checks turn C another eight for Jamie gold now I feel like betting is better than checking again cuz you want to make him come to the decision especially if you’re out of position
Cunning him that’ss one .1 million i rais 4 million pretty much my only choices are to decide he’s bluffing me and just move all the way in or fold myself you can’t be happy to see that raise from Jamie but with only a few people left at the final table I wanted
To be a little bit more careful and Cunningham will fall good bet by Jamie good read from Allen bad things could happen if you’re out of position in a big pot so I think that’s one big uh lesson for this hand back inside the pen and tellar theater
At the Rio where Michael Mis rocki became the short stack after that huge loss to daml and it’s only gotten worse let’s take a look at the current chip count and there’s a big gap between the halves and half knots Joseph Chung and Jonathan D well ahead while race nondo

This main event with his honest exuberance Chong the chip leader again phip family and everyone here in the theater showing their appreciation for the run that filipo cono made here in the 2010 Main Event we’re down to three let’s look at the tale of the tape presented by the official WSOP game play
Now on Facebook for 2third of the hands played at this Final Table either du haml or Chung has been the chip leader on the flip side John rner has been the short stack for 37 hands but still managed to secure at least a third place finish who knows how far he can go
Joseph Chong with The Knockout of filipo got us to our final three players action on Jonathan D haml Ace King on the button reaching for chips as he loved to do and a raise to 2 and2 million over to the short stack John rner trying to negotiate these other two monster Stacks
104 racer folds at the 1984 main event when it got down to three-handed Jack Bion replaced some of the chips on the table with bundles of cash to see if it would induce more action I don’t think that’s going to be a problem with these guys Joseph Chong with Jack five of Hearts
Makes the call from the big blind and will go heads up against the other big stack Jonathan daml the Flop 6610 daml still ahead with his Ace King Chong missed that flop Joseph Chong first to act he checks It’s a cotton mouse game lawn except everyone left here is a
Tiger du haml will test Chong bets two and 3/4 million to HL postures now to Chong Joseph wants to raise it up to 6 and 3/4 million Chong postures with sharks team Joseph’s parents looking on anxiously as is Jonathan’s mom Joanne neither with a hand daml needs 4
Million to call and that’s what he does two Riverboat gamblers in the middle of the desert turn card now is a nine that misses both keeping du haml marching towards another pot this is interesting the two monster chip Stacks seeing which one will blink first Joseph Chong has chips in hand and
Now he bets 5 a half million Chong Bluffs at it again and good news for him du hamel’s also got Squad and really good news for John rer he sits idly by as the monster Stacks try to destroy each other no kidding do HL makes the
Call for 5 1/2 million well it’s like the king said to Wesley at the end of The Princess Bride I think you’re bluffing River card is a king Doo secures the check mark he finally has something a pair of kings Chung’s naked aggression has not bought him the pot will he go
Uber aggressive one more time of course he will 135 million third time Chung has fired at this pot with absolutely nothing Dam’s been a non-believer will this bet finally make daml reconsider 135 million is what du haml needs to call down Joseph Chong Bluff the Canadian Pro reaching for
Chips and makes the call you got it John I got Jack and du will win that huge pot with his Kings duble tracked him down and got the insurance of pairing his King on the river Chung told us he can be spewy he just spewed off nearly 30 million chips
