After getting around to watching this past week's episode, I have to say that Temp Hutter is now one of my favorite players and Tuan Le is one of my least favorite.Anyone notice how Vince Van Patten has gotten that shocked "I feel terrible for that guy" look the past two weeks?

that was awful... i personally think huan lee played pretty terribly in that event, but was hitting every hand. And what made it worse was when he outdrew temp in that crucial hand, he acted like he didnt even apologize, which is what most people would do when they get incredibly unlucky. owell, i guess thats poker.

Are you kidding? Why be apologetic when you suck out? That's ridiculous. You put up your money in a tournament, you accept that that happens. Temp hadn't yet busted out, so there was still more to do. John Juanda once wrote that he never feels bad or apologizes about a suckout, he just hopes it tilts his opponent more. I appreciate people who act like gentlemen at the table, but you can not fault someone for not apologizing when they get lucky. If someone feels bad for a suckout, apologizing is fine if they want. Having something against a person who doesn't apologize for a suckout? That's just flat out ridiculous.

I just feel so bad for this Temp guy... The last hand was actually a great play if you ask me by Tuan Lee. The amount in the pot, Temp Hunter being a short stack, he makes him make the decision.But the K-9 vs 8-7 wow... Temp got unlucky in (for all I know) was the biggest game in his life. yeah yeah he walked away with a lot of money but honestly... first pays so much more, I'd still be pissed!

Was it just me, or did others think it a little strange that Tuan Le seemed angry almost the time they were playing.

Yeah...that's one of the big reasons I didn't like Tuan. He just seemed so angry constantly. Kind of ridiculous to be that angry when you're getting that lucky.

And he really seem to get upset if anyone said something that sounded like they were challenging him. Even when he was on such a lucky streak, he just kept scowling. I don't get it!! :think:

The main thing I hated about Twan...Tuan....w/eIs, I guess hes 26...partically a reason, is how the 9000 times when he outdrew someone, he'd get up screaming and cheering rubbing in thier face...."I made a bad play and got really lucky, YESSSSS!!!!!!"...I dont mind a simple, alright, a fist pump.....but it was like watching Phil Hellmuth take a bad beat....only the opposite(made sense, eh?)I would honestly love him at my table....as long as he doesnt get that lucky....I think we saw he check.....4 times, maybethe play with 84 :D was horrible too....he really didnt deserve to win this
