Best Poker show on tv....bar none.

My only gripe....I wish they would get some announcers who know how to announce and who can explain why the players are doing what they are doing. How many more times are we going to have to hear about how this is the most prestigious tournament in the world.

Yeah, the other guy (not Seif) consistenly makes poker-related mistakes when calling the action. Other wise, pretty good stuff.

He can say what ever he wants about her. He plays regularly in the Big Game at Bellagio/Venetian with the likes of Doyle, Phil, Chip, DN, etc. He is also widely considered to be one of the best all around poker players in the world. Also a multiple bracelet winner at the WSOP.


Oh wait, nevermind....that's Jennifer Harman. My bad. I was confused.
Boom!!

What a beating Hoyt Corkins took. Two big hands and rivered both times.

What an unbelievable final table....Harmon, Forrest, Elezra, and Harrington

It is really disheartening...

You play against a guy like Juanda..you finally catch a card on him and he is stone dead...and then..HE JUST PULLS WHATEVER CARD HE NEEDS OUT OF HIS ***.

Poker is all skill.

luckbox + Skill = Unbeatable.

Agreed. The PPT is pretty good but the announcers are terrible. Seif is so F-ing loud, and his commentary is way off. When Corkins had J6 and moved in b/c his M was like 2 and Seif gave him **** for it I was ready to hit the mute button.

You don't get rivered when all the money is in before the flop. If all the money is in before the flop, it doesn't matter in which way the cards come.
