3 Americans fighting for the big prize right at their home. This is good, but not impressive because Americans have very strong poker players, they have huge talent. Congratulations for their performance.

Besides being the majority of Americans who are always playing these types of events, their talents are impressive, they are very good, and this final table has shown it, a great show has been demonstrated by each of them.

I like how Americans play, but this poker is their invention and they have many qualities that have brought them many successes and WSOP bracelets. It is nice to watch how they play in strong matches. We have a lot to see there...

probably he start to believe that he will win this when he won hand with J J against Q Q and K K and he won that hand with J on turn and that was big pot! he kicked one player in that hand and after only 13 players left! so with luck in this hand he had everything till end of tournament on his side and when you win something like this, you must believe that you will win it! great for him!

I think that was an impulse to know that this tournament was for him, but also the 88 vs AA preflop was also very decisive, the 88 was an aggressive player and I think it was an advantage that just at that moment he had AA, there I think that defined everything because the other player was more conservative.

walton was being very aggressive with his opponents and I think he overplayed his hand when he went all in preflop with 88, he thought his opponent was bluffing him for calling preflop with that hand.

Of course, like everything in life you need a percentage of luck to be able to write your own path, but sometimes you always have to do your part so that this luck can be completed with other things and be able to achieve your goals.

I really liked the final table, and I think there were players who were nervous at the final table and it is not for less because each jump of prizes was millions, that tension that is breathed in each hand played has no comparison.

there are players who get angry, that's the situation, but sometimes bad luck makes you lose control and lose much faster. This is not the solution, but calmness, relaxation, skills, strategies it's very nice.

That's right, in these final stages you must be well prepared mentally, and always give your best game in each hand, a small mistake can cost you a lot of money, that's why a final table is always exciting to watch.

I will keep watching and commenting, every time I want to get motivated at a final table I always like to watch these types of tournaments at final tables, I watch the replays on pokergo's you tube page, a great motivation to keep going.
