Message: [QUOTE="ph_il, post: 1602274, member: 508"] Don't forget that Duhamel is almost a lock for second and Cheong knows this when he 6 bets bluffs with A7. If Duhamel is holding say 88-JJ/AQ/AK/facing a 6 bet shove, he is usually folding or it's very hard to call in that spot. If he folds, he still has Racener covered over 2:1. Cheong ran all over that table and Duhamel. Of course, we missed tons of hands that probably went on between the two/three of them. As for Cheong saying he doesn't want to win. It could because he doesn't want the responsibilities of being a WSOP winner. Maybe he is just happy with the money. Also, I see it as being a bit psychological as well. Every other player at that table was playing it safe trying to move up and win, while Cheong was very active and aggressive. He was playing like he didn't care about the out come and that can be pretty dangerous. [/QUOTE]
