Good luck with that.

What a horrendous all-in by the old guy against Todo. Matador-esque.

My favorite moment of the night was Norman Chad talking about how Seed (I think) was in the big blind, when there was this big white puck in front of him that said "DEALER." Not to mention the obvious fact that there were two more players yet to act behind him before the flop. Editing anyone?

[Hasy]

Huck seed is a white trash pos

[trying2learn]

you joined the board to say that? what a waste.

did Norm just say "man in the white hat beats the man in the black hat, as it should be."

I'll assume he didn't mean anything by that...

I think I'll give him the benifit of the doubt because it doesn't seem like he's the sharpest tool in the shed.

Nice table.

Lackluster poker coverage.

Yeah-- not having the nonstop WSOP reruns for the last 4 months and only having WPT (and occasionally Fox Sports' poker coverage), coming back to ESPN I realize how awful the coverage is. No clue as to blinds, chip counts, or tournament situations. They just jumped around the tourney from action hand to action hand, with the requisite fluff features and star-player sightings thrown in. It's the poker equivalent of E!'s Academy Awards red-carpet coverage. I had to mute my TV after about 45 seconds because, much like Joan Rivers, listening to Norman Chad makes me want to stab myself in the neck.

I think he was just referring to old-time westerns, where the good cowboy wore the white hat, and the "bad guy" wore black.

Of course.. and , uh, what else COULD he be talking to? I don't get what these allusions to something potentially offensive are

If you even had the slightest notion of this being a racist statement, you're retarded.

Chalk up on your spaghetti western movie history.
