Default Like the my best hand program on ESPN

Seems to be interesting, but accessable to a general audience.

Liked Brunson's hand from 1958 where he called Moss' overbet on the river with jack high, reading that Moss had a lower busted straight and the other guy would fold his pair to that much action.

Also Arieh's fold of the flush against Murphy and Harrington's check/call of the overbet push with TPNK to win the WSOP.

I wonder if Greg Raymer knows of his tell that Annie Duke says she picked up on.

Probably the one Harrington mentioned that his glasses turn a different color when he is bluffing.

Maybe the tell she was talking about was that after getting re-raised he only re-re-raises with a bigger pair then 10's.

I picked up on an incredibly usable tell on Greg Raymer.

When he gets involved in a hand/pot, he takes his glasses from the table and puts them over his eyes.

All of the hands they're using in that series are from 'The Best Hand I Ever Played' by Steve Rosenbloom. It's an excellent read and definately worth picking up.

Have I missed something or is it "The best hand I ever played that was filmed by ESPN?"

I'd hate to be the pro that played their best hand on FSN or Travel Channel.

True .. They will only show it if it was on ESPN or never televised at all(i.e.: Brunson's hand).

I didn't think the hand they showed from that Gavin kid was anything special, he limped on the button, and took down a small pot with nothing when neither of his opponents had top pair, I'm sure he's played better hands with bigger pots.
Arieh's laydown was nice.
