nice research by that news station: "because he did so well in the qualifiers, he goes into the tournament with more chips than anyone else!" and "the world series of poker kicks off on november 7th." lol
Moon makes Moneymaker look like ivey because moon just looks like a guy who plays cards at the VFW and moneymaker looked (in '03) like he was trying to be a tough-guy internet player.
Tough-guy internet player?
I know that I'm always looking over my shoulder, fearful of the roving gangs of 115 pound internet gamblers on the prowl for their next victim.
Will be interesting to see what happens, and if he makes any adjustments at the final table. Not sure I'm buying the whole "I don't belong here, I just been gettin hit with the deck" routine. He comes across as a good ol boy who isn't that smart, and I think part of that's gotta be by design. His mannerisms and attitude seem to make people laugh, but he's from my neck of the woods, that's how a lot of us are here, just laid back genuinely nice people. I'd rather have a beer with Darvin than Jamie Gold any day.

My friend played with him for one level with like 75 left in the tournament and said he cold 4 bet like 4 times in the two hours. Each time everyone folded and he showed AA,KK.
