I agree. That could be the best quote from all WPT broadcasts.

My favorite was When Devilfish raised, it folded to Johnny Donaldson (I think that is the name), and Johnny says something like "how much did you raise me?"

Devil fish says something like "it wasn't anything that personal, I raised the whole table"

I think I enjoy watching Mike lose just as much as watching Hellmuth lose

When he got busted by Brenes (or was it Layne??) and was left with less than the Big Blind he looked like he was going to cry, it was great!!

My favorite part involved the blurring of the Ultimatebet.com logo on the table.

Any long range shot will blur the Ultimatebet.com logo, but when it goes to the shot directly above the board cards a computer-generated logo of Ultimatebet.net (notice net instead of com) appears. Magic!

You can tell the blur is ultimatebet.com on a couple of shots on Matusow (no blur).

because of the dept of justice crack-down on online-gambling site advertising on TV.
ultimatebet.com is their real-money site. dot-NET is their play-money site. Most of the TV stations are playing it safe and are only airing ads for the play-money sites now...so they blurred out the site that is for real-money.

This is the third year in a row where wpt has had to blatantly blur out the UB.com logo. why does the wpt keep on letting ub put their logo on the table if they are going to blur it out? why not just put UB.net up there in the first place?

I don't think they started the ".net = Play for Free" ads until after Aruba 2004 actually happened.

Am I the only one that actually felt bad for him there? I know he talks a lot of crap but he doesn't seem like he's that bad of a guy once you get to know him. And, it looks like he probably did cry when they went to commercial...
