OMG, I just saw the previews for the next episode of HSP, and I'm 95% sure that the chubby black haired guy that is on the next HSP show is the same guy that I bluffed reraise with 28o at the PCA.

I'm fairly certain that Illya Trincher is that guy. I'll assess it at about 85% that he is the guy.

I think Negraneau's river check was weak unless he planned on check/folding to an Ivey bet. Betting the river there seems sort of mandatory since it might get looked up by Ivey with JJ+ while Ivey betting that into two players might not happen, and it is sort of obvious that D. Williams missed a draw and i doubt he is going to bluff into two people.

I'm a little behind right now (remember, I don't get GSN), so I'm only now watching last week's episode.
Elezra - QQ Farha - K4 Flop - QTT Turn and River are running 6s, and it goes check check twice. $12k in the pot. Sammy checks, and Eli bets $20k, which I thought was ridiculous. Then Sammy CALLS WITH KING HIGH??? Is this one of those situations where I'm supposed to just realize that I'm a poker moron compared to these guys.... or.... um..... WTF??? |

Wow - that is one big thread. I can't even get it to show me all the pages without freezing up on me. Gotta love it.
Anyone care to summarize? Has Barry chimed in, or has this been totally organized by 2+2ers with someone keeping a running tally of individual donations made? FWIW, I like , myself. |

Some good hands in last night's episode, make sure to check it out when it hits YouTube TP.
I hope Brian Townsend learns how to handle chips before his next appearance. Watching him fumble around was painful.

I'm a week behind, but I think Brian is playing well. IMO, Sammy looks like an idiot - not just because he keeps getting his money in bad - but because his reads are way off too. He's made a couple of comments about Brian's play, and I have no idea what he is talking about. Also, that huge hands that sbrugby got involved in vs. Paul Wasicka, he made that big laydown with AT. Sammy indicated that he would have instacalled - and donked off another quarter million, if he even had that much sitting in front of him.
Paul's play seems pretty transparent to me. No way is he putting it all in there with a heart draw. I would have put him on a set of 7s too. |

Yeah, as BL said, Sammy has been like a leaky sieve. To me he just looks like the stereotypical degenerate gambler that plays every hand he's dealt hoping to get lucky. I'm sure some of the moves he pulls work against the typical rich moron that comes to Vegas to play poker, but against these players he's going to get (and is getting) hammered.

Gabe Kaplan is far and away the best poker announcer I have ever heard. Sooooo far beyond those WSOP schmucks and the slicked back hair WPT deuche....he came out with a book btw, the WPT dude, can he even play poker?

I strongly disagree with you here. I think Negreanu and Lederer are much better, from the limited time I've heard them. I don't like his show, but Chad Brown is a pretty decent commentator too. I'll put Mike Sexton above Gabe, as well, but I think those two are close. Actually, I think I prefer Gabe. Phil Gordon could be really good, but he's got nothing to work with commenting on celebrities donking about.
Vince Van Patten (the WPT dude) and both ESPN guys I could live without though, for sure. |
