Does Adam Schoenfeld ever do anything besides act as the Jerry Seinfeld of poker culture? Why is he important?

[/ QUOTE ]

Because he's opinionated? It sure isn't because of his WSOP tournament record.

Has he EVER been featured on an ESPN poker broadcast in anything BUT segments?

They showed him after one of those Nuts segments, wearing a hat with the hand rankings on it.

He'd actually have to cash first before he can actually be featured.

Why does Hachem seem so distressed? Seems like he should relax and have fun since he already won it last year.

Why did you edit the language in your post, Kev? It IS because he "says witty things." He's sharp and prepared with clever and sometimes hilarious soundbites/observations on poker culture.

He hasn't played a lot of WSOP events (or much poker at all) in recent years, but he could go a lifetime without ever cashing and ESPN producers would still feature him in the broadcast.

He was Evelyn Ng's BF for a while, he did make one WPT Final table, and he's a columnist in a poker magazine, forgot which one.

He's self deprecating humor is welcomed, vs a lot of the other crap they come up with...

IMHO of course. 8)

first hour: liebert, vos, and puke. i was watching with a family member and when one came up i'd be like, you know what he said? (ty NVG!) guess what she did last year. etc. the hand where the guy had 4s vs annie's kings and went all-in and she folded was great. she totally walked right into it.

second hour totally ruled. doyle is a [censored] badass. "this is milk, this is cookies." <333333333333 older southern people are hilarious.

the prahlad-humberto stuff was pretty funny. i wonder how well they know each other. i guess humberto has a history of being a jackass, but would he taunt a great player like that if he knew he had such talent? or is prahlad just an internet donkey in his mind?

good to see DN win the golf bet. i guess he's only down $975kish now.

nobles rules.

Seriously. That guy played Nobles so well, not that that isn't hard.

The guy who got all like YAY!!!!!!!!!!! over winning with Aces is a tard.

Nobles is just horrible. I love lags who luckbox, win, talk [censored] and then insta bust.

this episode sucked like all the others. of course, i may be a bit biased, since i'm rating them on how much air time i get.

The time to really be pissed is if you don't get any airtime when it gets down to the final table.
