People crying about WSOP ME winners.....get over it. For real it is so old. Yes occasionally when fish outnumber pros by like 10-1 one may just win. Money beat the most people there to win the thing w/supersatts, and ran one of the best, well timed bluffs against a consummate pro, and went on to win, he deserved it. So did Raymer who definitely won a load of flips, but played with killer aggression almost always w/decent cards and he crushed the pros he ran into. Gold talked everyone, including many pros into ruining themselves. So stop the crying and dont play the damm event if the idea of the 'dead money' winning bothers you. Fn 1st prize would still be 1mill if only pro's played.
Congrats to this guy! Why do you pros bash everyone?
-He was up some 3K buyins at his level, and I dont see many "shots" on that list... pretty good BR mgt imo.
-He had to win at least 3 Satts for that seat and you can bet your ass that last one had some good players in it...
-He gets through over 1K sick players without any crazy chiplead to do it and makes FT
-He dishes out a chunk of change = 4X his lifetime earnings to make deal = class act
Here is my question.....how does one "luckbox" a 5-1 chip disadvantage against a pro?
Congrats again bud! No possible conglomeration of FT pro's could ever add as much $$$ to future coops and sunday's as this guy just did.....and he gets the fkn moneymaker thanks.

Reason: No paragraphs at 2+2 is like an amateur winning a ME
MunchenHB:
"I have large edge and position"
[X] Douche'st comments ever
FOO-92:
"Munchen, you came from 18m to 9m with ur edge and position"
[X] BEST REPLY EVER
"Chip-chop was 50K over 1 m.. Im asking for 58K less, lets play if you guys dont want to do it"
[X] Assumes his fellow players are complete Fn idiots .... even I know a c/chop is highly unlikely
Mike "munchenHB" Telker making an extra $487K despite his sick "edge and position" because an amateur decides to complete a deal that was not getting done otherwise.
[X] Luckbox of the century
Calling down a semi-nit amateur's obvious set or overs (actually quads) for 3 streets w/2nd pair.....
[ ] Bitching hero call
*If Mike is a pro...I hope he sent the amateur maratik his $22K back as a thank you for the almost 1/2 mill that 'amateur' made him!

His pocketfives had him at just under $4 million in winnings _before_ this tournament, so I'd say he's decent
Such an amazing story!!! Congratulations Maratik. This awesome story definitely does have to be spread across the world, such a great day for online poker.
