I guess it's what he has to resort to now that the ravages of age makes gigolo... I mean "tennis pro"... pretty much out of the question.

Mike Sexton is okay but VVP just irritates the hell out of me! I can't imagine anyone taking their poker game to the next level with VVP at the helm. The DVD's are just part of a long line of poker products for fish.

Vince Van Patton has no idea what he is talking about. he tries to make the game easier to understand to the veiwer, but to poker players he is only generating lines similar to the ones in "Tilt": "I didn't need ot look at my cards, I saw your face when you looked at yours." lol

Mike and Vince really remind me of the auto-generated commentary in the NHL series from EA Sports.

I hate Vince Van Patten, for two reasons, because of the above quote and its truly incredible over use and because they introduce him sometimes as "Tournament Poker Guru" on WPT.

I thought he was the hollywood homegame champ. Anyways, I would bet he is a decent player. He is just hamming it up for the show. I will never be able to comment on the dvds as I will never see them. Most of us are very likely beyond any of its teachings.
