Default Re: Classic Line form telecast



That was a good line, but my favorite was when (I foget the exact hand) a player moved all-in and I believe John Juanda was pondering a call, and Jerry Van Dyke pipes up with the line "He better have a good hand to call". Thanks for that insight.


Or how about when he was drooling over his colleagues' magical super powers which allowed him to give a chip count by simply looking at, you guessed it, the stack of chips.


With all of the talk about poker tournaments wanting to bring big sponsorship on board, this was a serious step in the wrong direction. I congratulate the producers of the program on their success in finding the single most incompetant and uninformed host on this planet. It was also a brilliant move to allow Jerry more airtime than Phill Hellmuth. It makes me long for the days on Dick Van Patten.


Perhaps for the WSOP the Discovery Channel could hire Ronald Reagan to offer his insights on the game.
