"unsuited" need I say more?

Also, when it's an all-in situation and Lon gets excited that the player who is ahead in the hand picks up a draw on fourth street, even though it is totally irrelevant.

LOL, totally.

With A5 vs. KJ on a board of 48T, the turn comes a 3 and Lon goes "AND HE PICKS UP A GUTSHOT DRIVING THE NAIL INTO THE COFFIN!"

"OH IT'S AN EIGHT!!!"

If I hear Norm say that the ace of spades is the prettiest card in the deck one more time I'm gonna fly to California and make him eat an ace of spades. "Pretty." This is poker, man, words like pretty don't apply. "Beautiful", sure, I'd let that slide, but pretty. And he wonders why his marriages failed. And, somehow, I don't doubt that he's as bad of a player as he says. Anyone ever seen him play?

I'm not going to hold the announcers to dressing up until the players do. I've seen enough shorts and windpants on poker television coverage to last a lifetime.

gabe kaplan and lederer are both very capable announcers that are both probably much better holdem players than you are
