Why is Brandon Adams on the show? He always has been a total stiff nit.

I have only watched him play on "Cash Poker" and he was not close to a nit. He was floating in pos. and trying all sorts of bluffs. This table calls for some nittness.

it does but also note the difference in the level of the competition between both shows (except for farha)

The jman QQ fold seemed really weak.

I don't know why, but the lighting continues to feel really unnatural, which makes the line-up look like quite the freakshow.

[strat question]
In the hand where Bob Safai flopped a full boat with pocket TT on a JJJ flop both he and gabe commented afterwards how bad he played the hand. Was the better play to raise the flop or fold to the river bet?

I think he should have either lead out on the flop, or checkraised it, depending on how often he thinks Jen is gonna cbet with a missed hand.
Once the A came on the turn, there was pretty much no way he had the best hand. Is she gonna bet 99 or 88 on the river? Not likely, since there's an A up there.

And the extreme difference in the depth of cash at the table could be a factor.

Unfortunately Jman isnt socializing too much at the table, maybe he doesnt know many of the players personally. I'd love to see him playing.

Other than that:
I think Sammy should have showed PH the K7, PH wasnt a believer.
Why isnt DN playing any hands? Does he think he'll win more money if he plays really tight?

Showing the 7 was the best way to get PH to steam and steaming PH = spew, no question showing just that one was the correct call.
