Not enough poker. Too much filler. Of course I still watch it, but that's a moot point. I watch anything with poker in it. Except Hollywood Home Game. I frequently mistake "Roker On The Road" for poker programming. It's a sickness.

Default Re: National Heads Up Poker Championship Loved it!


Sorry against going against the apparent grain. I thoroughly enjoyed the show. I think it's great for poker...

May develop more personalities (that's why I like Phil...always colorful..wish there were more like him WITH his ability)

Wish they had done more on Ivey, but compared to a few years ago (where Sklansky and I played at the same Golden Nugget) the great game of poker has come a very long way...I think it's shows like this that will continue it's popularity. Perhaps I'm wrong.

I can hardly wait til Sunday's show. And then the one next week.

I watched it too, but I agree they didn't show enough poker. I was watching Negreaneu take on Jerry Buss (who knew he could play well, he also did well at the WPT invite), and 1 min., Buss the the first hand, and the next he was a huge shortstack. They skip so many hands. Also, did you guys see Antonio Esfandiari beat Howard Lederer. He won an all in about 9 times in a row.

Best line of Sunday's Show:

(while Negranu looks at AKs) "Daniel is short stacked at the feature table"
.
.
All the chips end up in the pot on the flop...and Daniel has Antonio covered. I hate being short stacked heads up with more chips than my opponent!

yeah that was kind of weird. I thought the best line of the show was when gabe kaplan was making fun of mike sexton when he had eric lindgren all in on a table. or phillips vs. hellmuth is the best matchup.

Ok, this is gay wtf? Anyone else in LA having problems getting this show? I set my DVR to record it and its just some lame local news program, even though the guide has the HUPC listed. Maybe it's an LA thing, but its pissing me off. I also looked on CNBC, wasnt there either.

I'm in Virginia and I got infomercials for some sit-up bicycle and then real estate investment. "You don't need mony to make money!""I work 5 hours a week and I'm going to make 90 grand this year." It airs again on thursday, right?
