    sicko... by far craziest FT I have ever seen as far as preflop betting... Moorman takes 3rd.



    Edit: rail call 36k on FTP 3/7

    anyone want to chime on moorman's shove with the 44's, i don't see how it's better than raise calling against the sb and 4betting sowers, and obviously it looks faceup. It keeps sowers from reshoving so there's that. And makes him fold some hands sowers is 3bet/calling. Fold out 22 and 33?? guess sowers is just rejamming those if moorman opened, so moorman can't call anyways. But i guess we've been over this before so a bit moot. Easy 82k ftw.

    Congrats Sowers, Moorman and Huni! sick scores. As for the shove in the hand Moorman had 30 bbs otb believe the sb had 16 bbs and Sowers had all the chips playing very aggro in the bb. It's not a shove that I'd make with 30 bbs but I've already talked to a couple of high stake regs that are a lot better than me and they said they really liked the shove with the 4s.

    I think Sowers going to 3bet shove wide there if moorman opens there given the other stack size. Pretty Awesome final table to rail. Congrats to Mike and Chris

    I guess we can pretty much compare this to Jmaster's double ship of 2 biggest FT majors in august last year..

    Not to discredt JY at all as that would be a close second and is incredibly sick in it's own right, but this was the nut toughest field ever. Sowers has to work so hard to have reads on everybody, wtg sowers.

    I knew when i saw two of his entrys deep with around a 100 players left, he would have a great shot, but to merge stacks in a tourney like this is completely absurd. Great job sowers!

    Watched this until 5 handed. The 3 and 4+ betting I saw up to that point was awesome and a lot of fun to watch. Grats to Sowers such a sicko.

    Wow, sowers is ill - a really good guy too. I wonder how much equity you lose from merging in that spot, I'm sure he doesn't care too much though ;-).

    I think it would be really interesting if they didn't merge stacks and just let you play it out with 2 accounts.
