i just finished watching it, and it was pretty good stuff.
there was some pretty good poker being played. i was impressed with some of the players, particularly because many of them were unknowns. not that they arent great players, or that every known player is a good one, but i thought that the level of play was pretty good.
i dont think that knowingthe winner actually changed anything for me. it takes away some suspense, but i wasnt really watching it for that anyways. i wanted to see some good poker, and i got that.
what an awesome payday for those guys. of course, i would be pretty disappointed if i won "only" $1-$1.5 million, when there was so much more money out there for the top spots.
how about dannemann's backer? what a day for him. obviously he took a serious risk with the $5k backing, but that paid of very nicely in the end, and all he had to do was watch.
