Default Re: Things Lon McEachern needs to stop saying

My complaint is that he makes it too obvious that a "surprise" card is coming in his commentary. Last night, when Phil Gordon was in at AA vs. Pham's TT - you knew by his announcing before the T came on the turn that it was coming.

The worst example was the hand that knock off Bellande in the Circuit event. At the flop, it say that his opponent got the "wheel draw" with a very excited voice (even though it was a gut-shot draw). That makes it way too obvious that he'd complete the wheel, and there's no way anyone would annonce it that way if this was live.
