I have to say that after watching all these classic WSOP episodes (1992 and up), that I really prefer listening to Gabe Kaplan and Phil Helmuth over Lon and Norm. At least both of these guys know poker. Lon knows poker somewhat from doing broadcasts but Norm only knows ex-wives and Helmuth jokes.

Gabe and Phil and so much better than Lon and Nrom. I would even take Gabe with Lon, but for gods sake ESPN needs to GET RID OF NORMAN CHAD!!!!

I would like to win a WSOP event not for the money, not for the bracelet, but for the sole purpose of telling Norman Chad how unfunny he is!

Missed the first couple, but now I have the TiVo running overtime. Love these old broadcasts.

I think the funniest thing I've seen in a long time is Phill Helmuth getting his head shaved. That 2002 WSOP is such a epidose worth watching!!! LOL

I like the whole players signing the felt in front of their seat bit. They should bring that back.

You think small, you should win the WSOP to figure out how much money it would cost to have Norman Chad allow you to kick him square in the nuts on national television.

Lon sounds too phony to me, he is much much worse than Norman Chad. At least Norman Chad likes poker, Lon sounds like whatever, anything can happen and I dont really care cause I dont really care about poker. Thats just how he sounds to me.

Gabe Kaplan + Mike Sexton = Dream Team Poker Announcing Team.

I also hate Vince Van WashedUpActor.

If Mike would just quit teaching the newbies that when they raise that it's a "RERAISE!!", then we'd be all set. Man I want to kick him in the nuts every time I hear RERAISE! when there was never a raise.
