OK, I suck, but I may have been as good as tonights winner.

I liked the Navy guy, and I also thought VVP had a few really funny comments. However, I thought VVP's hair made him look like a punk.

When Shana Hiatt said "Back to my favorite pair, Mike Sexton and VVP", what do you think Mike and Vince were thinking?

Sexton kept saying how good Eskimo was, but he just looked like a guy who likes to make bad calls and get lucky.

Pot T$300k, guy goes all in raising T$850k and the dude calls with nothing but a flush draw.

What did you think of the Wall Street Wonder guy's call against annoying Harry?

because it is not a live program i doubt they were thinking anything.
it's edited, they weren't listening to her when they were producing the close for that segment.

When that guy starts coffeehousing like that, you have to know he's begging for a call. I can't believe these guys didn't pick up on that.

I couldn't root for anyone tonight. Hated the cantankerous old Navy guy. Didn't like the winner, especially when he pounded the table when he got Eskimo to go all in and he showed his Kings to the crowd. He made some really stupid all-in bets as mentioned by Sexton, on the quad Jacks and also on the nut straight. Didn't like Eskimo, thought he was just a calling station. About the only guy who I semi-liked was the Vietnamese guy, but he wasn't around long enough to make a difference.

The only thing I can say about this episode is this:

I HAVE NEVER, IN MY LIFE, WITNESSED SOMEONE SO BADLY MISPLAY J-J-J-J-A.

When did Robbie Coltraine start playing poker? Eskimo looked just like Hagrid from Harry Potter. I think that's the only reason my wife watched...

Well you don't want to let someone have a free card and draw out on you.

My favorite moment was when Eskimo moves in w/ Qx postflop on the Qxx board and the guy has Kings. Correct me if I'm wrong, but he slams the table and triumphantly shows his hand to the crowd and cameras not only before the turn and the river are dealt, but before he even sees Eskimo's hand, right? At that moment, I so wanted Eskimo's cards to somehow change into a flopped set. I mean, this guy couldn't even conceive of the possibility that his one pair might not be the best hand.
