What? Eli has the best hand with a weak ace? Is the card display wrong or is the announcing just wrong?

Either Gabe simply misspoke or there was a bad editing job done (or both - that mistake should have been caught). Given that the commentary is done AFTER editing, then the commentators are relying on the same card information we are.

I know there has been a lot of arguing in this thread about Gabe's comments, but he wasn't making a direct comparison between the two hands.

Gus bet out.
Gabe said, "I don't think anyone can call here. Eli has the best hand."

Gabe was clearly comparing Eli's hand against all of the other potential callers in the hand.

I'm not saying Gabe doesn't make mistakes and I'm certainly not saying his announcing is easily understandable [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] but I don't believe he was technically incorrect here.

OMG, do we really need to go over this for what, the hundredth time? It is obvious that Gabe miscalled the hand and he was not comparing Eli's hand to the others. Amazing that comprehension skills are so lacking among people who call themselves poker players.
