This is stupid. Hellmuth will go on tilt when he watches how bad the celebrities are.

Bob,

What on earth makes you think Gordon wanted to leave the show?

[Vee Quiva]

Phil Gordon mentioned at his book signing (I think this is the same signing where the audio clip is from) that he was producing a new show where average players would qualify to play against him in a sit and go. In between hands there would be instructional content about how the hands were played.

It sounded like a great show, I hope he gets it off the ground.

Because Kids In The Hall is behind only Monty Python as the funniest TV series of all time...?

But I have a feeling you may get your wish - it didn't seem like Dave Foley was having all that much fun himself last season ("...if I cared about poker...") and the reality "stars" just about made him swallow his tongue (I'd have a hard time being in the same room with Johnny Overplayed without punching him too).

My idea: Hellmuth and a wrestling announcer. And maybe a monkey.

I can't believe it took him this long to get outta there... his podcasts during the wsop last year were pretty cool and I always thought that doing this celebrity stuff made him seem like a clown... always having to force a laugh at lame jokes like some big goofball... brutal

does anyone actually watch that show anyway... my gf got me to watch a few episodes when it first started... celebs fer her poker fer me... that didn't last long
