  • A Bracelet Poll (Some 2007 Spoilers)
    OK, as everyone who isn't living under a rock or in willing hiding from WSOP results knows, Phil Hellmuth now has 11 bracelets. Question 1 is, will Phil win his 12th before someone else wins 11 (just answer that one via reply)? And second, WHO will be the next to 11? I ask mostly because Doyle and...
  • Amazing Poker After Dark Hand
    I'm simply in awe of this hand. It's from Wednesday night's show. 5 players were left, blinds 200/400. In 2nd position, Johnny Chan raised to 1200 with AA. Joe Hachem called from the SB with KQ, and Huck Seed, who had been playing very tight thus far, called with 66. The flop came 6-J-J. Joe...
  • It's Time for WSOP Picks Again
    The World Series of Poker is only a little over a week away, and it's time to name our picks of who we think will do the best this year. It's so hard to pick just 3, so I think this year we ought to get 5 picks. I'm going off the Cardplayer point system for determining who does the "best"...

  • WPT Foxwoods Last Night (5/23)
    If anyone saw this last night, I think it provides a great example of how to misplay a big stack in E.G. Harvin. He limped in too frequently and allowed good players (ie Nenad Medic) to see flops and generally outplay him with smaller stacks. Also, on several occasions, he bluffed with almost no outs...

    Yeah, I already forgot who the other one was and her name... too lazy to look it up. I was wondering what you guys thought of her... I saw her on t.v. at the new episodes of WPT, and well, I wasn't all that impressed. Wrapping up every interview with "thank you" was so blase.

    Has anyone watched this before? Saw it tonight and it was the most retarded thing I have ever seen. He was like trying to teach this girl to play Hold 'Em and it was retarded.

  • WPT Championship 2006 (Spoiler)
    The Final Table is set for tomorrow, and should be a great match (if the blinds don't kill the play too fast). James Van Alstyne is the chip leader, and I would really like to see him win--he is a fantastic tournament player from the Dan Harrington school of Hold'em; very solid indeed. The final table...
  • Vince Van Patten Should Die
    Seriously, the topic says it all. I heard him compare this dumb puke of a kid in Aruba to Stu Ungar. In the Poker world, that ought to be punishable by death.
  • Rounders
    Does anyone think that there are players as good as Mike in Rounders?
  • High Stakes Poker 4/10
    Just finished watching the tape, and Phil Hellmuth is officially a donkey. What the hell is with betting 1k into a 19k pot? Is he a complete fish or something? I'm sad there won't be any new episodes for awhile though. :(

    I caught an hour-long segment of a tournament last week that was really interesting but don't know the name of the show so I can look for it again. The tourny was in Monte Carlo but I'm pretty sure it wasn't the Monte Carlo Millions tourny. It was sponsored by one of the online sites and had Chris...

  • High Stakes Poker 3/27
    Another most enjoyable episode, in which Daniel managed not to donk off any more big pots. :lol: I must say, there is nothing better than watching old Phil flush money down the toilet then whine about his bad luck. I have no idea what he was thinking about with that QQ hand, or with his weak ace...
  • WPT Grand Prix de Paris, Season 4
    I thought this episode started out ok... I liked Tim Anders, kind of a Chris Ferguson look meets Mr. Rogers demeanor--but he shook way too much, and he got too cocky later in the game when he was on a roll. Then, the episode degenerated into the usual shenanigans. I didn't even watch the end of the...
  • 888.com Poker Nations Cup
    Has anyone from the UK been watching this? I caught an episode on the weekend and found it quite entertaining, the international theme is good because it gives you someone to support. I have to say I was very impressed by Bengt Sonnert and Clonie Gowen.

    I mean, I've seen SnG's with better structures. $100,000/$200,000 blinds when there's like $8,000,000 on the table is beyond ridiculous (this is on the Legends of Poker on right now). I'm sorry, but it is unfair to the great players out there who hack through these big fields for days with a fair structure,...
  • High Stakes Poker 3/20
    I must say, this was my favorite episode so far. Barry Greenstein showcasing why he's the man, and Phil Hellmuth losing $150k... my kind of night! :lol: Couple points, 1. Wtf is wrong with Daniel? He is making some of the biggest donkey plays I've ever seen like he was an amateur or something....

    I saw it on GSN today. It was suprisingly good and different rather than tournaments. Its a cash game with players such as Negreanu ( spelling? ), Doyle, Forrest, Greenstein and such. Wondering if anyone else has seen it?

  • 2004 WSOP day three
    Was probably the most enjoyable poker I've watched on TV so far this year. Just some highlights that I enjoyed 1) Brunson knocked out Fischman 2) Helmuth had a fit - was classic - guy raises Phil's bet on the flop, Phil had top pair, Jacks I think. Turn is a Q, both check. river rag. Phil bets...

  • Just saw the WSOP Razz and PL tourneys
    Razz - wot a crazy game, I've never seen it before. It's basically anti-7 card stud with 2 down, 4 up, 1 down and the lowest hand takes it. There are no flushes or straights so A,2,3,4,5 is the nuts. It's basically a drawing game so it's kinda crappy and it's frustrating as hell. I won't ruin the...

  • 2002 WSOP Announcer or 2003?
    I recently watched both the 2002 WSOP and 2003 for the umpteenth time, and I noticed the announcer on the 2002 one was boring. Not the play-by-play guy, but the analyst. The 2003 one was a lot better. Any comments?

  • LATE NIGHT POKER on VHS/DVD
    Hi there. I live in Australia and only managed to catch 1 series of LNP. Would anyone have or be willing (for a charge) to sell me as many series as they have of LNP on vhs or dvd? Many thanks Mark L Melbourne Australia
  • No fan of Celeb. Poker but Fred Willard had me in stitches!
    I don't usually watch but that guy just gets right to my funny bone, don't know what it is. He had me in tears last night on the WPT Hollywood Home Game. One thing I really like about this show was the "Red Card". Each player can ask for help from poker pros once during the final table. In this case,...

  • WPT - Grand Prix de Paris
    That little French announcer of theirs was hot. Jeepers! I couldn't believe those 7s. "Crete Forever!!!! The Island of Crete!!!!" Next week it's Phil Hellmuth, Phil Gordon, Scotty Nguyen, and Jennifer Harman in Aruba. That should be something.
  • Fox coverage of Poker
    I just watched the Battle of the Sands (or whatever) covered by fox. It was supremely bad coverage. The poker was good, but the announcer was DRIVING ME NUTS. Lederer was there and they should have just gave the mic to him all night. I would have much rather heard his input instead of Mr. Overacting...

  • I always play my best after watching the WPT
    I don't know why exactly, but I always seem to really get in a groove right after I've watched a WPT episode. Today, after watching the Aruba repeat, I went on a rampage in my Sit & Go tournament, and won it without breaking a sweat. Maybe it was a coincidence, maybe I was just lucky, or maybe it's...

  • Sat Night live
    Did anybody see the Celebrity Poker sketch on SNL tongiht? It was pretty decent. They ran Kevin Pollack down hard for doing to many impressions and made fun of their horrible plays (Gene Shallit looks at 72o, Phill Gordan says "One of the worst hands in poker, he will lay this down, without a doubt,...
  • poker publicity
    I was wondering about the future of poker, specifically Texas Hold 'Em, due to it becoming more mainstream because of WSOP, WPT & even the Celebs getting into it... Do you think this will have a positive or negative effect on the game?
  • WPT
    YOu ever notice that when the clock on your cable box or whatever you have that tells time clicks 10:58 for us eastern stardard time people. The hand that should be the most exciting isnt b/c you know whos going to win. Do to the time. :lol:

  • Helmuth got SPANKED!
    I was giddy with job watching him get hammered hand after hand. I hate that whiney little jerk-off. Possibly one of the most entertaining WPT's I've ever seen... simply because of the Helmuth factor. :lol:
  • the wpt
