"And then there were nine."

The World Series of Poker got down to the nine survivors; the final table; the November Nine. There were a lot of different reactions when that finally happened.
Relief that it was over.
A sense of being cheated because it wasn't really over.
The beginning of a long period of delayed gratification.
A cool celebration at the final table.
An unsatisfactory celebration because we had not a champion.
As you all know, I was for the delayed WSOP final table from the beginning but you also know I was pulling and praying for at least one "name" player to make the final nine; that did not happen. So we begin a long walk and wait until November. How will this all play out? Well at this point everyone has an opinion and no one has an answer.
This is just the first of many "9" posts.
