wtf daniel just flopped a set with pocket 3 but he said he has "trips"

[/ QUOTE ]

?

[/ QUOTE ]

A lot of people refer to any three of a kind as trips, but some nit-pickers insist that the term "trips" should only refer to 3 of a kind when you have one of the cards in your hand and two on the board.

I imagine the poster's point was that he should called it a "set."


Whatever . . . Doesn't seem like something to get all hot and bothered about.

'set' isn't heard too much in Toronto card rooms. People around here also insist on calling the button 'the puck'.

Todd Brunson:

I think Shawn's an idiot and he's gonna lose all his money.

Hahahahahahahahaha! That's funny because it's true.

[/ QUOTE ]

Shawn is the only guy in the history of TV poker to lose a battle of wits to Mike Matusow. And Matusow has more charisma too. How does this guy get in this game?

[/ QUOTE ]

Probably because all the other players asked the producers to include him?

The Buss loan was pretty funny. It's a whole 'nother world there.

I think a set became trips with Norman Chad. Sad but true.

People call it a "straight flush draw" when really that only accounts for 2 of their 17 outs. Therefore, they are mroons.

I think he said something like Shieky was the profit in the hand or that he only called because Sean was in the hand (Sean limped UTG this hand, right?). This seemed to be a running joke with a few other quick references in the broadcast, to the effect that they all wanted to play any hands against Sean because he was a donator.

I really enjoy this show.

Thanks. And there will be like 12 episodes in total or something. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

i loved it when Buss went broke and looks a DN, hey let me get 50 grand...DN passed it like he was asking for 20 bucks.

[/ QUOTE ]

Did you see the faces on Farha, Elezra and Harman when he busted and it didn't look he was going to rebuy? [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

You can hear Farha in the back say: "Give him some chips Daniël". [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

Only then Buss turns to Daniël.

Jehaim,

Buss is by far the easiest to play but Sheiky is better to play.

I can't believe no one has mentioned my favorite line from that whole show...

When getting a little grief for playing 96o, Sammy says, "that's what she gave me"

"...she gives me aces, I'll play aces"

I love that.
