Hey guys, this is Paul Dreyer (Archimedean) from the show. I'll write more about the show later, but just as a clarification, I got my seat on the show because they did a random draw of folks who had put in contact info to be contacted when MansionPoker went online. It was a very surprising call last Monday, to say the least. Trust me, I am probably the least connected person to the industry that you can find. The rest of the table was a pretty incestuous bunch, though.

The first three rounds were 20 minutes, with the BB going up by 2k each round. Later rounds were going to be 15 minutes at Matt's discretion. I talked to Matt about the short chipstacks and suggested they should make them larger for future episodes. Based on how little gameplay there was on this episode, we'll see what happens.

There was probably at most 50 minutes of actual gameplay. They edited out a couple of hands (including a bluff of mine that actually worked, darn it!).

More later. Being Vegas and all, I got a total of eight hours of sleep, and it caught up to me about halfway into watching the show tonight.

Zzzzz,
Paul

P.S. MCS, who are you?
