Re: Met Ellix Powers on Monday.
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] They call Phil Ivey the tiger woods of poker. You know why? Because he's black. Freakin [/ QUOTE ] No, because he looks like tiger woods, and he's at the top of the game. I've never one heard Chris Darden or Ellix powers the tiger woods of poker. Get a better argument, this one stinks. [/ QUOTE ] I think that the point is that while the comparison is not exactly unfair, the name Tiger Woods comes to mind when watching Ivey due to the physical resemblance.

Re: Met Ellix Powers on Monday.
I thought Ellix did something really stupid in the WSOP. After he was out or whatever, he looks straight at the camera, says hes a pro and all menacingly says hes just waiting for you (the viewers) to get home from work and play on the net so he can take your money. Hey Ellix, thanks for scaring all the fish away with your crack smoker antics. On national TV no less, that must have reached millions...

Re: Met Ellix Powers on Monday.
[ QUOTE ]
I love how everyone forgets Hennigan was the first to say "Get a floor boss" as soon as McManus said "Yer disrespectin' the game." Only after re-thinking it and seeing the situation unfold before him did he say "He's great for poker." Lost a little respect for "World" that day.....not much, though. [ QUOTE ] Hennigan didn't call for a floor boss due to McManus's comment. No need to lose any respect for the man due to calling for a floor boss anyway.

Re: Met Ellix Powers on Monday.
Hennigan called for a floor boss to get a ruling about the dispute over whether Powers could legally raise in the dark from his blind; it appeared to have nothing to do with siding with, or against, McManus in his tirade against Powers.
