An amazing performance by Dan Cates in the Poker Players Championship. He played poker quite well too! For me, watching this guy was the highlight of the entire wsop series without question!
Oh yahhhhhhhh!!!!

So glad I've been able to watch all of this final table. The HeadsUp has lasted for many, many hours.... it's 4am and they are still going at it! I really hope Dan is able to win this... he almost had him a few times.

I don't know what the most impressive thing is, Jungle winning back to back the PPC or staying in character even during the interviews

Yah ... agreed. It was an amazing performance! I loved every moment of it and am really glad I purchased PokerGO for this month... just for that final table alone.

Hello folks!
I have to say, this guy Dan Cates put up a show, in one of the most prestigies tournaments in the WSOP.
I whatched the whole FT 13 hours of stream on Poker Go.
If you want to learn HORSE this is the one to see!

Now he developed kindof a crazy boxer-like persona, I watched the interview with pokernews, funny!
Is it a new marketing strategy? I like it, good for poker, good for him and congrats of course.
Back to back is always a proof of skill and not only luck

You guys had any doubt??? It was obvious from Day 1 that Cates would take it down. The guy is a legend in the making.

Jungleman was an end boss in the PS days. It's good to see that he is crushing the live games.

 

[zipocool]

in one hand he was lucky when he mixed up Omaha and Omaha hi-low) well, the heads-up was also not easy, but of course he is a very strong player, it’s not for nothing that he wins such a prestigious tournament 2 years in a row

He was doing an impersonation of Randy Macho Man Savage. (very famous WWF pro wrestler... back from the days of Hulk Hogan). The comments & 1-liners made by Dan Cates that you'd hear throughout the day(s) while sitting on the tables in the 50k Players Championship were all things said by the MachoMan. Dan stayed in character the entire time! It was awesome!
(the costume Dan was wearing is available online ' Macho Man Randy Savage Costume')
