One thing that drove me nuts besides everything else mentioned here, was this:

Blinds 200/400. button folds, SB makes it 1200 to go. (3xbb), which was a good raise, the bb now makes it 2400 to go.

Annie says: "this is the minimum raise allowed". Incorrect! SB raised 800 more. The next raise is the amount of the last bet or raise, not double the raise to amount. BB can make it 2000 as the minimum raise, not 2400.

This show was awful, the host is a putz, the players are laughable, Annie offered NOTHING new to viewers whatsoever.

Well, thanks alot, you assholes have now forced me to actually watch this to see just how bad it is. I was able to resist when it was only a few posts moaning, but now that this is a legitimate long thread I must torture myself.

According to the GSN website it is being repeated thursday.
Wish me luck.

Funny thing is she was not acting - she is just as flakey IRL. Wonder who picked the wardrobe. Geesch, I think she would have been better off in her jenes and pink T.

Annie's new guy probably wanted to make her look like a 40 year old version of his ex - Shannon Elisabeth. If he did, he needs to try again.

Not positive, but I think every single post in this thread mentions the name of the channel this is on.

GSN turned to a premium channel a while back and I'll be damned if I pay the $3 a month just to see how bad this is.

Oh well, if only there existed another way to get the show...

Looks like GSN has another 'Poker' show that was announced at the same time as ADTOTW...
