Re: Rank the TV Poker Commentators?
Gabe Kaplan is the best in my opinion. Frankly I get a little tired of Norman Chad's jokes and his bias for or against specific players.
I do like Lon. I think he plays a good straight man and his voice is the WSOP ME for me. I don't think he has ever claimed to be a poker expert. He's kind of like a good referee, you know he's doing a good job when you don't notice he's there. I'd like to see them pair Gabe Kaplan and Lon for future WSOP broadcasts (though I know it won't happen.)
I thought Phil Gordan and his partner(forget his name,) did a good job on the WSOP ME PPV. Wow, that's alot of acronyms. Especially considering that it was live. The guest pros were great. Anyhow, that's my .02
