Full Tilt has made Tom Dwan a member of Team Full Tilt. I can't help but notice the timing of this, after Poker Stars' Joe Cada wins the WSOP Main Event, and other young stars on Poker Stars like Elky Grosspelier and Yevgeny Timoshenko are tearing up poker. FTP has to combat Stars looking like the site where 20-somethings should play.

I think these new (Durr excluded) younger players are going to go almost as quickly as they arrived! I also think that Darvin Moon's act of not cariing, "this is all just a game" attitude...was just that, an act!
A few times he (Moon) looked like he wanted to scream, jump or $hit his britches! I hear people are calling him Darvin Gump, I say...I think we found Dan Conners brother, Oh c'mon Roseanne! lol

I love watching these young kids and their aggression, it makes the game exciting. I thought Darvin Moon played an incredible heads up, hubby and I watched it online, hand by hand before seeing the few hands they showed on tv. Heads up was almost 100 hands, must of been agonizing to watch live for the families.

I agree with runnergirl Darvin played a very well heads up game and almost took Cada out although I do feel in some way he would like to have the young gun take it down to write a new record! They both played a great game Cada was very lucky but thats gambling you cant just be conservative the whole match YOU HAVE TO GAMBLE and it payed off for him....although Darvin would have loved to take the extra 3.5 million I believe he was happy for the kid as he took down the biggest tournament and beat Eastgates record!

I agree with you both! They both played very well. People forget that poker is about having guts (nowadays people call each other snames for having them tho, donk, fish, suckout but it is GUTS!) and young Cada surely had them!

I don't think it matters what we thought of their play.


They were at the table and they had a feel for each other. On paper the critique can be done, but the live element outweighs all.

IMO.



I was entertained as much as I expected to be from the WSOP on espn.
