Default Re: Poker commentators: Best and worst?

1. Kaplan
2. Sexton
3. Gordon/Lederer..maybe leaning towards Gordon cause I don't think Superstars takes a lot of skill to commentate...buddy gets ace king and pushes all in first hand...pocket pair calls etc.

All three of these guys are very straight up. When someone makes a bad or great play they explain why it was bad or good. Gabe is definitely the best at analysis. Gives insight into what he thinks the players are thinking which is always enjoyable to hear. Sometimes he's dead on or way off but its fun to hear.

I don't think Ali Nejad is bad. He does well with a co-host like in the Heads Up Championship for example but on After Dark its just him announcing cards...making jokes to himself...a tough gig.
