Why Isn't There a Poll Yet? Best Cardplayer Commentating Duo

toss · #1 07-17-2005, 09:17 AM

I left out a few because I don't think anybody would vote for them. Or I could be wrong. Also interested to see any two poker player you would want to see commentate with each other.

How could you leave out Jennifer Harmon?
I found it very relaxing listening to her.

And what about Mena Suvari?

My impression from the WSOP thread was that Erick and Jennifer was a dry duo. I dunno though.

Helluth and E Dog were the best. When Hellmuth slipped when the hot chicks were walking by and tried to get Erick to go get 'em was classic.

That Irish Dude and Negranu i think

I had to turn it off because I could not stand listening to her fumble over herself and generally not offering anything that wasn't blatently obvious, often even getting those things wrong. Negreanu tried helping her get comfortable but it was to no avail (at least by the time I got sick of listening to her).

2 gems I remember were that Negreanu announced the blinds/antes and literaly 3 seconds later she asked what they were. Negreanu let out a sigh and answered sarcastically. The other was her "what's a 'venue' mean?"

While I thought all the cardplayer.com commentating was great, I still think the best poker commentator I have heard so far is Gabe Kaplan. That's right Mr. Kott-air himself. I'd love to hear him and Norman Chad together. Any thoughts?

Daniel was the only one that was actually focusing on the action in such a way that you could hear him speak. Phil did alright in that regard but he was too busy trying to get puggy pearson to sing, etc.

You could tell that Jennifer was inexperienced.

E-Dog was too busy trying to make sidebets with Phil to be a good commentator.

David Williams did a pretty good job I thought.

I couldn't hear Layne Flack half the time.

Now that everyone is hyping up the commentating, I wish I would have listened to the rest of the broadcast after Mike Matusow busted.
