the only thing that bothers me is after the turn on an all-in. I can almost predict what card will come based on Lon or Norman Chad's commentary. If they say, "He needs a four, and a four only to win this hand," a four will usually appear. If a guy is not going to hit his longshot to win, they will usually say, "Joe is in trouble here."

1. they are more likely to show more exciting suck-outs.

2. You really need to test this theory. I think it's just selective memory on your part. you just aren't as likely to remember the times when they say "he needs a 6...and a 6 alone to stay alive....ANNNNNND it's a meaningless Jack."

Selective memory? No way. I can recall in exact detail every single bad beat I've received, yet I've never given one out.
