He mispoke and not only that but later on he miscalled again on another hand. It was kind of odd since they only do this after the taping. Another odd thing in this show were the percent graphics showing both Gus and Daniel at 0% while the other 2 or 3 had some percentages there on the J hand. It was only after everyone folded to them that the 100% tie graphic popped up. That was simply a piss poor job of producing.

They rounded up the percentages so it's 101% but that's about it.

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

[/ QUOTE ]

I think he meant the best hand of the remaining players after Gus bet into the big field.

[/ QUOTE ]

This is exactly what he meant, though I admit, it was confusing.

[/ QUOTE ]

No, he explicitly miscalled their hands.

[/ QUOTE ]

Wow, are you annoying. Trust me - he was referring to the fact that Eli had the best hand of what was remaining. Do you honestly think that with 5 people in the production booth and the graphics up while he's announcing that he would make that mistake? If you think yes, I can't argue with you - you're just too dumb to be argued with.

Gabe's commentating seemed to be at an all-time annoying high last night. Specifically, when he was he was comparing Eli's (I believe it was Eli) bet to a football game beer vendor - “KING HIGH FLUSH HERE, GET YOUR KING HIGH FLUSH HERE, ETC., ETC.” - he frikkin did that for a solid 30 seconds non-stop! OK, we get it, ha ha, good one, now STFU.

It was Amnon (sp.) and he was referring to how obvious he made his hand look. It did get old quick though.

Does anyone know what makes up the prop bets the players are tracking?

[/ QUOTE ]

Yeah, Gabe was saying the producers should squash the prop bets in the next season, but I think they're fine. They should just make them less mysterious. I've never seen somebody hold a menu of prop bets before. What's on that menu?

[/ QUOTE ]

Yeah, they should let the audience know what the prop bets are so we can follow the action, it would be kinda cool.

They must have had that first shot on screen for only a second because I missed it. The second shot showing no tie and 0% was on screen for most of the time.

Yes, we can honestly believe that he made this mistake (and one other during this show) because it was pretty obvious. Maybe the producers decided to let it stand as a way to make things appear more "real"? As far as re-editing goes, just look at the 2002 WSOP ME that Varkoni won and Gabe called. They still haven't re-edited that one to fix the blatant editing sequence blunders.
