half hour 'tilt' preview special on ESPN right now

[CCx]

8pm-830pm EST - if you've got a good TV that can split screen, enjoy the preview AND the orange bowl /images/graemlins/grin.gif it's really too bad norman chad is commentating this whole freakin' preview too..

I'm sure MicroBob is front and center, getting all his lines down.

[ThaSaltCracka]

the show looks so stupid.

[CCx]

agreed, but i dont usually do much on thursdays in the dead of winter, so i'll probably watch /images/graemlins/grin.gif

[JinX11]

If it brings the fish, God Bless it.

[ThaSaltCracka]

That scene where Cloutier and Negreanu are intimidated by the Matador is hilarious. Anyone else see that?

[CCx]

yah, wonder how long it took TJ to blow whatever ESPN paid him for that appearance on craps... /images/graemlins/grin.gif

[JinX11]

I really need to change my Party username to "TheMatador".

[manpower]

I'm sure it's already been taken.

[TimTimSalabim]

At least they won't have people moving all-in by pushing in their plastic chip racks, a la "Lucky".

Great line from Daniel in it, though.

"I think I can find better spots."

Yeah, Daniel is afraid to play poker with, well, anyone.

Yeah, I saw it. 30 years ago, in "The Baltimore Bullet".

James Coburn plays a pool player. He arrives for a tournament, and finds all the top pros in the practice room:

COBURN: Hello, Jim. Want to play some?

REMPE: No way, you're too tough.

COBURN: Hey, Mizerak, how about a little 9-ball?

MIZERAK: (backing off) Uh, sorry, I've got a prior engagement.

COBURN: What do you say, Allen?

HOPKINS: What'll you spot me?

An absolute laugh riot.

i completely understand this sentiment. but to me it looks mildly entertaining. i'll give it a chance.

[slickpoppa]

Everyone tell all your friends about this show. Can't hurt to breed new fish. Hopefully there are a lot of scenes about slowplaying pocket kings

[CCx]

i dont know about slowplaying, but he sure does turn them OVER slow.... /images/graemlins/grin.gif

[manpower]

Anyone catch the part when the author admits he doesn't really know how to play? Good part, that part.

Did anyone see Phil Hellmuth?
