The thing on Mike's head is a "highlight," or if you're Harley Brown, a "zinger."

You oughta fix those numbers. Rather than probability of winnig outright, it should show pot equity. For example, if both have the same ranked cards with no flushes possible, it should read 50% and 50%, not 0% and 0%.

That would not only give the actual statitic of interest, it would always add up to 100%.

Oof. Three terrible plays and we're still at the flop. Now four! Five! And Alan takes it down with pocket aces.

I'm at the fifty club in London and we're about an hour away from filming - no Erick Lindgren, add Roland de Wolfe and Alan Smurfit. 13 players - eight at a time.
as for the game...of course it's for publicity - isn't everything? FullTilt is obviously trying to raise their profile in the UK and Europe especially in light of what is going in the USA when it pertains to online gaming. But....the players are playing for keeps - many of these players compete on a daily basis (Ivey and Harman) and the fact they are both sponsored by fulltilt should mean nothing.
As for being here and not Bart - Barry?!? what the hell are you babbling about? I have a relationship with the Poker Channel and that is why they picked me. In my humble opinion - Bart is the best play-by-play guy out there.

A few annoying things - I'll always be me - but I have to sugarcoat these players - the group of players we have here, while quite exciting, is not the best group of NL cash game players in the world. De Wolfe told em he could find a dozen players that would be a favorite with this lineup.

You all know that I love to be brutally honest and I will be when it comes to some atrocious play, but it'll be a bunch of..."these are the best players in the world" " what a lineup" - this guys great and this guys even greater - you know...that kind of crap. I'd much prefer to say the truth, but I'd like to keep my job.

hope you guys are having fun - I'll type up an upsate when I get chance.
