Message: [QUOTE="arahel_jazz, post: 1812396, member: 19189"] GG Martin... When I went to bed about 1AM local time around hand 110-115 of heads up play, Pius was down to about 20BB and looked really defeated... guess he caught a couple of hands. From a publicity point of view - I'm glad Pius won. He will be so much more visible and accessible as an ambassador to the game. Not to ding Martin, but he had the television presence of a paper bag. The language barrier would have been a problem too. Hell of a grind though... I liked Antonio - he was right on about 60% of his reads - and acknowledged that he has never made a final table at the ME. The biggest problem all of the commentators had was that this was 7+ hours of live television. How many times could you plug the Rio, or show the rail singing songs without boring the holy crap out of people? [/QUOTE]
