John deserves his bracelet and that money well. never easy when your opponent has such a big chiplead, but he showed great determination, fighting for 3 hrs and eventually winning it. congrats to him.

Helmuth's final declarations are just great, its really from someone who is professional and knew the difference between winning and loosing that HU. For him, it would be a great recognition, another one, but one that he would put back together with the other 11 that he already achieved. For his oponent, Juanda, the oportunity of a double victory: beating a pro and winning a big tourney from the WSOP! And he did it!
