Does everyone really hate Norman Chad?

And I understand those reasons, they are valid, but I have had several occasions to actually converse with Dutch Boyd and see his side of the story. Keep in mind I am not one of the ones who lost money in the Poker Spot fiasco so I can afford to be unbiased, had I lost money in the deal then I am certain I would have a different point of view. I also understand that I will NEVER get anyone on the other side of the story to see my point of view, this is a situation where there are no winners. I also realize I am in the minority here and I am OK with that, like I said I wasn't a player at pokerspot so keep that in mind.

I met Dutch at the WSOP this year, and he was very friendly. I too was not involved in the Poker Spot fiasco, but I have read quite a bit about it, and I agree that it is one of those no-win situations for everyone.... just a big mess, really. Anyway, I really liked Dutch. He was down to earth, and just a genuinely nice guy...

Back to the topic at hand - I also briefly met Norman Chad, and IMO, real life Chad is much less annoying that tv Chad. He is my least favorite poker announcer.

I seem to be having trouble keeping this thread on topic, but I’m intrigued by your mention of being at the WSOP. What if any events did you play? Care to share your experiences in a new thread?

I think Norman Chad is alright. The guy I cant stand is Vince Van Patten

[Penguinfan]

Yep, he is intolerable.

Sure.... I'll start a new thread in the General Poker Discussion section...
