To win the match Joe Cada had to let Darvin Moon back in. His best way of closing out Moon was to let Darvin over-extend himself on a bluff or a marginal hand. But because Moon was betting so often, this also put Cada on the path to having to make some expensive lay downs. Maybe Joe made some mistakes on these hands but he had a plan – I think a very smart plan and he was doing his best to execute it.

The final table looked a lot different on TV than when I watched it live. For that matter, Joe Cada looked much different playing heads-up compared with how I saw him on ESPN on Tuesday night. Heads-up, he dominated Moon and seemed like a very savvy player. He was much less a focus of my attention on Saturday, especially because of the time he spent short-stacked. I didn’t see, didn’t notice, or didn’t keep track of all the times on Saturday when he got his chips in bad – but it seemed like always. On Monday he played like a stud. On Saturday more often than not, he looked like a dud.
