Maniac 0 Posted July 6, 2006 Author Share Posted July 6, 2006 I like it how they are doing 5 episodes/tournament. 4 episodes of pre-final table action and the final table episode. Link to post Share on other sites

pokerinc 0 Posted July 6, 2006 Share Posted July 6, 2006 i can't listen to it cuz the announcers suck, and can't watch it because magriel is the ugliest player in poker.So far the ppt's not looking good. Link to post Share on other sites

They are dumbing it down for the stupid veiwers to much. However, give them credit. They are the first poker show I've ever seen not to teach u how to play.Why did u call preflop with 74s? Fish: I saw Noli Francisco do it on the PPT, and they were sooted. Link to post Share on other sites
NortonFan 0 Posted July 6, 2006 Share Posted July 6, 2006 I have seen some of this before, did they have like a sneak peak or something? Either way, I don't like this. Link to post Share on other sites
pokerinc 0 Posted July 6, 2006 Share Posted July 6, 2006 this is complete garbage. the spirit and attitude is awful. and five weeks per small turney (500k prize pool) ?click Link to post Share on other sites

sdnuol 0 Posted July 6, 2006 Share Posted July 6, 2006 i like how the travel channel logo is in the upper right corner instead of lower left corner Link to post Share on other sites
Wandigo 1 Posted July 6, 2006 Share Posted July 6, 2006 makes me laugh when I hear them say p-p-t.like everyone else, i'm not fond of these announcers either.Is this in accociation with the WPT? If not, I'm surprised they let Gregorich wear the WPT jacket at the feature table. Link to post Share on other sites
Maniac 0 Posted July 6, 2006 Author Share Posted July 6, 2006 Is this in accociation with the WPT?Same channel. Same creator. Same cameramen. Same timeslot. My guess is that is in association. Link to post Share on other sites
SBriand 4 Posted July 6, 2006 Share Posted July 6, 2006 I have seen some of this before, did they have like a sneak peak or something? Either way, I don't like this.Yeah, they had the first ep on a few months ago. Link to post Share on other sites
Dan The Man 0 Posted July 6, 2006 Share Posted July 6, 2006 I didn't mind the commentary. Mark Seif was good, but the other guy was kind of lame. I think if you like the WPT, you'd like this. Sure, the announcers aren't as good, but every table is filled with great players. Link to post Share on other sites
Swift_Psycho 1 Posted July 7, 2006 Share Posted July 7, 2006 small turney (500k prize pool) ?It's funny that 500k is considered a small prize pool nowadays. And I'm not sure how much more you could possibly expect the prize pools to be in freeroll tourneys. Link to post Share on other sites
bursell 0 Posted July 7, 2006 Share Posted July 7, 2006 Maybe it's because I had already seen the episode, but I almost fell asleep by the end. Maybe the upcoming shows will be better. Link to post Share on other sites
Ec5 0 Posted July 7, 2006 Share Posted July 7, 2006 i like how the travel channel logo is in the upper right corner instead of lower left cornerI was just wondering,is the Travel channel logo in color,or is it transparent like on CBS,ABC etc. while they show any poker program?I live in Canada so I'm just curious.I can't stand the fact that logos exist and prefer DVDs but now that the WPTour only releases Best of DVD's I'm screwed.

JadeTiger 0 Posted July 7, 2006 Share Posted July 7, 2006 anybody else notice they are showing a lot of crap shoot hands. Everyone limps with Q7, J6, 54, KTo, and it just whoever fires first. Unless of course Noli Fransisco is in the pot. Id like to see a bit more editing with some real power poker moves. Raymer was great while he lasted. Brindley is a euro donk.

Brindley is a euro donk.no considering a crap shoot is when people constantly move in because blinds are so highthis is called deep stack poker, wich is excatly what large buyin tourneys are Link to post Share on other sites
Suited_Up 2 Posted July 8, 2006 Share Posted July 8, 2006 I love seeing all the normal hands.That's the exact reason why this show is about 100x better than the WPT.They never go into how these guys play in early rounds, and now we can see it. It's great, whether the announcers suck or not. Link to post Share on other sites
