"Official" Live at the Bike thread (8/27)

It didn't take long for the curmudgeon to make an appearance.

Last night WAS boring, unless you're a fan of watching several hands in a row with no flops, or of incredibly passive play.

I do agree about the end of the show, people who actually bothered to watch the 4 hours wanted to get something resembling a payoff get completely ignored.

I hope one of the tech guys can figue a way to never repeat last nights abyssmal show.

if they were great tourney players maybe it wouldn't have sucked.
