Default Re: NBC HeadsUp Poker Championship - Semis and Finals - Sunday, May 20

Agree with most of the posts that this show's format was hard to watch (re-plays of the hand before and after the commercial, etc.).

I also like the post about Ali's analysis seems to be results oriented based on him viewing the cards, that seems to be dead on and any donk who watches this as a spectator views play based on results which is always hilarious to me.

(Like the guy at the B/M who beats himself up mentally for laying down Q5 before the flop when 2Q's hit the flop, I die of laughter everytime inside). I get the feeling that if Ali plays that's how he views his game like it was a bad fold because he woulda made a monster on the flop.

Paul Wasicka was great on the other hand, and I really like his play. No flash, good reads, and just seems to make a lot of high percentage plays. He is a breath of fresh air in the poker world compared to all the other fist pumping jocko's that lately have been representing poker lately.
