Default Ed Asner the worst calling station of all time?

Just saw the rebroadcast today of his "win" on the Hollywood home games version. Wow was he bad. The thing is Favereau couldn't read that he was a bull and just bet when he had the nuts or near nuts. From what I heard Favereu plays highstakes online games, he must take a beating from the Spirit Rocks of the world.......

Ed was pretty bad...

Favreau is one of those hollypoker.com players.

His use of the advice card in that episode was very clever and effective. Other than that, what he showed would make me fearful for his bankroll at high stakes game.

These days a guy that plays like Favereau can't beat the Party 25NL 10 man games. I still think he could beat the 6 max though........ [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Not possible that he adjusted his game for the players he was playing against...no, that can't be possible. Players must play exactly the way they do on TV every time they play or else they're not allowed to play on TV. It's in their contract, or so I've heard.

I also was thinking about how much of a calling station he is [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] and laughed about it. Ben played pefectly (but MAYBE not the last hand, he should have realized that stealing with that much money in the pot might get someone to actually call.) but anyways.

after I saw how emotional Ed was about winning im happy he won.

He was pratically crying. Thats amazing. Others deserved to win over him but im glad he did. None of the other contestants would have cared that much if they had won

GO ED [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Adjust what, Asner was a bull you adjust by just betting a made hand and make him pay for drawing with 3rd pair ace high?
