the "what if" is irrelevant. he had a pair of 5's and thought he was ahead, i think he is a capable player that guessed wrong and got lucky. i respect players who are capable of making moves they feel are correct, it wasn't some donk off imo, some who viewed it just might not understand his level of thinking or what he perceived as his opponents holdings. i was rooting for cheong to win it all but can't hate on another player for getting lucky against him. i see why people are offended by his celebrations also, i didn't view them as unsportsmanlike, just a man who went from the brink of elimination then became chipleader in the biggest tourny of his life. couldn't imagine the emotional swing of a situation that big.
