Very disappointed that mike sexton was out in 4th place, and look how stupid was his loss, he had kk's vs a7 off suit, much better hand, and all in preflop, Mike had to win this hand, but kuck was on the other players side, this makes me sad a bit

You have to be very unlucky to lose twice with K K against A 7 and then we say that poker is a game of skill.
Now losing one hand when you start in front happen to everybody but twice in the FT is very outraging and of course directly to the bar and get drunk to forget these hands.

mikey mikey... you came to and end this time, and the street is calling you back, your poker career is officially over now, since you can't even win with pocket kings vs a7off, you even manage to lose with the same hand to the same hand twice in one tourney to the same guy... just forget it man, poker is not your thing... go into porn industry, make a ton of sex movies.

Many congratulations to Daniel Strelitz on taking down this title and just over a million dollars first prize. I was hoping that Mike Sexton would win but he should be very proud of reaching another final table

Gratz for this nice winning...over one million Dollars for a week of work was a really good cash But it was nice to see, that a poker pro with a lot of experience like Mike Sexton can win against the new generation of poker players with his nice 4th place!
I was hoping that Sexton will be able to maintain the reputation of a great player who despite his age can play at a good level and will teach the game of many players ..... but bet ace and 7 against the two kings is certainly a mistake for fish

you know dudes, i am still crying, like having crocodile tears pouring down my cheeks because of the fact that my street amigo mikey sex/ton didn't finish at least 3rd... no medal for mikey is the saddest thing one can witness in this fierce and competitive world of live poker.

I am not sure I can agree with you 'cuz I've honestly seen some rough stuff at the tables, but 'no medal for mikey' still a great catchphrase nevertheless.
