GoAT tournament


Having watched the first part, Rutter seems to be off his game. I remember from the interviews during Holzhauer's streak that he also sounded the most confident about beating James.

Really rooting for Holzhauer over Jennings, though. Fingers crossed.

Brad did seem off last night. Very unlike him.
I’m fine with whoever wins. It would be nice if they all win a game or two to keep it going longer.

reply

Sucked tonight too. I'm hoping he's throwing his game to ramp up the drama.

reply

Yeah, it's embarrassing at this point.

Really doubt that he is throwing the game deliberately, though.

Part of his backstory he shared with Alex, about how he doesn't recall things as well as he used to, isn't helping!

reply

I know what you mean about Holzhauer. There is something so nice about the guy. He goes out of his way to shake his opponents' hands, and just seems like a genuinely decent, humble person. Aside from being an absolute genius, of course. I'm rooting for him too.

I think he overdoes the high-fives, etc, just a bit.

reply

I don't like the format. Two games in a row per episode is just overload.
