WSOP 2018 results/tournament discussion (**NO SPOILERS**) - Page 201 - Poker News

Miles actions at the end basically confirm anyone who doesn't like him because he comes off as fake and non genuine. Entire time he's talking about how he's full of energy and wide awake, and that the bracelet matters to him the most. Then at the end it's max salt, no grace at all, blames fatigue and mentions the money

Yea, not the best look for him, especially after the **** talking on Antonio.

He's all chipper and friendly when it's convenient. Not so much when he's getting pummeled.

It has to be brutal losing this event. FFS, I'm steaming on the inside if I bust out of a $130 tourney. Can hardly imagine what it feels like to fall just short in this one.

Even though I find the guy annoying and fake, I hope he doesn't relapse and let this moment define him. He still had a great run.

For 3 million bucks, you better be right. Even if it’s just a million bucks, you better be right.

Miles was fake the whole final table. The apology to Antonio after he was caught is just another fake move. Dude is a clown. Glad he got slow rolled.

I wanted to believe he was a good guy, and he still may be, but there are clearly some issues there.

Cynn seems like a good guy. Really glad he won now.

Otoh while I was rooting for Cynn ever since Cada busted I wanted to take it back on that last hand. The amount of time he took to make that call was shameful. You know u are never ever folding there in a million years. If you got coolered u got coolered.

Makes it laughable to think he ever came even close to calling that earlier bluff with a pair of fours lol.

Guys 100% a douche, but I would feel some type of way if a guy was “tanking” for a 27BB call with trip kings- for 3.8 million and the championship. He probably thought he could be good for most of the time the tanking took place.

Cynn was never ever ever folding. It should had been 3 seconds.

Yeah he was all smiling and talkative when he had the chiplead and froze up after losing it. The ending was as how he sees live. Can't handle the downs.

Thought Cynn was just overwhelmed with tiredness and emotion to where he couldnt find words. It’s happened to me before and it sucks.

If Cynn hadn't said out loud, "I'm not slowrolling you," I might have agreed with Miles. But Cynn literally said what his cards were, and that he was just making sure. Cynn effectively apologized in advance for what it would look like once the cards were on their backs.

Imagine if Hellmuth had been in Cynn's spot when Miles said "all in"

It would have been his fastest mush his chips in the pot call ever. Chips would have flown off the table lol.

Yes, it was a slow call. But no, it wasn’t as much as a slow roll as much as people think. 3bet pot and big, dude bets flop and almost snap shoves turn overpot, and this is for 3.8m and a championship that changes lives. On top of that, he even said out loud what he had. Isn’t that bad. It’s not impossible for miles to have kq or ak. And miles acting like a total sorry loser at the end totally sums him up.

Anyone saying slowroll is an idiot. He could easily have pocket 8's. Any other time in the tourney it's a snap call.

I had a decent bet on Cynn with friends, so glad he won. Man though I thought they both looked pretty worn near the end. Miles adjusted well like 5 hours ago but became cowed looked like. I feel like if Cynn had been slightly less stationy with A-high it might have ended a bit earlier as he revived Miles a bunch of times.

Was a fun final table overall. Wish I could get some sleep but its time for wimbledon->worldcup.
