2009 WSOP Final Table Saturday

Finally the last broadcast has been made and we now know how Darvin Moon picked up all those chips. After watching it play out I was left shaking my head wondering why he never even made a probe bet to see where he was at in the hand. Sure, it certainly appeared that his flush would be the best hand but I wonder why he didn't just flat call or even fold to such a large raise on the turn. Had he done so he would have remained at the table and able to pick a better spot.

To me it seemed as if it never crossed his mind that Moon could have had a flush and it would likely be larger than his. Even if he did end up folding the best hand he would have had around $10 million or so after the hand had he folded and still been in contention. That's just my thoughts on it but in the heat of battle we have all made moves that we have regretted later. On the other hand it was not very likely that Moon would have a flush too and it certainly had the appearance that Moon was simply on a draw to an Ace of diamonds. In any event we now have our final table and it ought to make for some good TV. I'm looking forward to it!
