Both Brunson siblings knocked out with QQ, and Doyle was knocked out by QQ.

LOL... what a joke that guy is Khan.

QQ vs AA. Kahn with QQ, flops quads.

Last hand was memorable, but these were two lame hours of poker.

Pretty uneventful episodes. You'd think that ESPN could do better than this.

Khan is atrocious. Not his play, his personality. I went in giving him the benefit of the doubt after all I've read about him here, but wow. I don't think I've ever seen anybody act like a bigger d-bag in my life. It was painful watching him do his stupid dance while trying to get the crowd involved, and everyone is just looking at him with disdain. ESPN sucks to give this guy so much coverage. I understand their desire to broadcast interesting people (which is why I love to hate Hellmuth), but Khan is complete crap.

These were probably the two most boring hours of ESPN WSOP coverage I've seen in a long time. Two hours, and about 20 seconds of Scotty. The people want Scotty, give us some bloody Scotty!

Well, I guess we now know who seized the WSOP douchebag of the year award. Usually a highly competitive race but Hevad Khan simply ran away with it. He's the kind of online pro that makes the community look bad--like a bunch of geeky shut-ins who spend every hour munching cheetohs in front of a monitor while multi-tabling. Norm's side note about him being a Starcraft video game 'pro' was embarrassing just to hear, since Khan must have thought that was somehow worth sharing when they asked questions about his life.

very disappointing 2 episodes. I was at the feature table for just 2 hours and saw many interesting hands, but didn't see it on TV today. maybe just because they were not played by people like Gus Hansen. but who wants to see Gus and Gavin Smith check down Aj vs. KJ or Carlos Mortensen eliminates a short stack with 55 vs. 44 allin preflop? just so boring. people watch TV poker to witness dramatic hands even if they are not played by some stars. most of these pros are not that well-known outside the poker circle anyway.
The guys at ESPN are just idiots.
