that sucks. the show is kind of growing on me. at first i thought it was boring.

Re: Poker After Dark thread (week of 11/12 - Show Open)
 

lol @ Ivey trying to trap Phil twice with Aces. I was praying that Hellmuth would find a hand and raise.

Re: Poker After Dark thread (week of 11/12 - Show Open)
 

this show is picking up esp. this ep. It was boring for a minute and now is getting interesting. LOL at Ivey hustling Gordon at golf.

Re: Poker After Dark thread (week of 11/12 - Show Open)
 

It's creepy how obsessed Hellmuth is with Ivey. He's got this whole rivalry thing going in his head and keeps blurting out warnings and threats to Ivey when the rest of them are just trying to have casual conversations. Get a grip and get over the fact that Ivey >>> you.

Re: Poker After Dark thread (week of 11/12 - Show Open)
 

This is true, lol.

I think it's just a way of Hellmuth affectionally giving Ivey respect though, in his own way.

Re: Poker After Dark thread (week of 11/12 - Show Open)
 

Is it me or does Jennifer look better this week?

"That's not all I can put in your mouth" I'll nominate that as the best line in a poker show ever.

Also, Hellmuth bitching about Gus reraising is annoying. He had a legitimate hand every time, and I hope he [censored] stacks him the next time it happens.

[/ QUOTE ] yea I wanted hellmuth to have a hand he thought was good enough to push to just see KK from Gus. Would of been gold. Also wow Furgeson has to be the most boring person to watch play poker?

Re: Poker After Dark thread (week of 11/12 - Show Open)
 

Strange how Hellmuth went on tilt just from a couple of standard preflop re-raises.

Re: Poker After Dark thread (week of 11/12 - Show Open)
 

"OOOOOOOO BABY DOLL GUS IS RAISING OUT OF THE BOX!" in that horribly unnatural nervous voice of his. Stop trying to speak and act like all the cooler players Hellmuth.

Meanwhile Gus has 2 queens, 2 kings, etc...

The most annoying man ever.

i saw it as needling gus so that he continued to do it till he could catch him, kinda the same way everyone comments about JGold bluffing when he's at their table, kind of a backhanded compliment so that he'll get a big head and try and show off

Re: Poker After Dark thread (week of 11/12 - Show Open)
 

Most clueless line of the week: Jennifer Harman saying that the reason all the reviewers hated "Lucky You" was because they don't understand poker.

No, Jennifer, your movie just sucked.

I hate to say it, chris is a nice guy and all but he is just not made for T.V. He is pretty boring and dull, and I would much rather have someone who says more then 10 words, but isn't very good at poker.

Re: Poker After Dark thread (week of 11/12 - Show Open)
 

I thought Phil's jumping on Gus was more annoying then the Ivey stuff. I tend to like Helmuth but I want someone to kick him out first.

As for Chris, I agree. He is not much of the personality. Mix that with him not playing any hands so far and he is a waste of space. His character does not match his outward appearance.

I wonder if Ivey will ever hit that 72.... Seems like he would practice for the last 3 years straight just to win the bet.

Re: Poker After Dark thread (week of 11/12 - Show Open)
 

Does anyone else get the feeling all the players are just bored outa damn mind? I mean Hellmuth is taking a nap at the table and everyone else is just sitting there going through the motions while Gordon talks about some sports crap. You know what would liven this game up? a couple of rounds of Russian Roulet!!

Re: Poker After Dark thread (week of 11/12 - Show Open)
 

Gordon...who?

Somebody at that table change their name?

Re: Poker After Dark thread (week of 11/12 - Show Open)

I think you are talking about Howard Lederer. Phil Gordon is not at this table.

Re: Poker After Dark thread (week of 11/12 - Show Open)
 

Phil Gordon is a freak and kind of a weird dude imo

Re: Poker After Dark thread (week of 11/12 - Show Open)
 

Shana's lack of cleavage this week is very disappointing.

Re: Poker After Dark thread (week of 11/12 - Show Open)
 

i really do hate phil hellmuth so much. Wot a complete retard. He is so self absorbed its amazing

Re: Poker After Dark thread (week of 11/12 - Show Open)
 

For some reason I like him and generally find him pretty hilarious.

It's just amazing how someone can have THAT many issues and ALWAYS make sure to bring every single one of them to the table.

He is just an unreal character I guess who I find entertaining.

Re: Poker After Dark thread (week of 11/12 - Show Open)
 

I love how Chris sucks at shuffling chips.

gg some people are pretty damn stupid. Phil Gordon [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Re: Poker After Dark thread (week of 11/12 - Show Open)
 

Harman: Phil, if you wern't a poker player, what would you have become?

Lederer: In other words, what do you wanna be when you grow up?

I laughed my ass off.

Re: Poker After Dark thread (week of 11/12 - Show Open)
 

Kind of disappointing that Chris Ferguson can't lighten up at all for this show. He's still in his full on "game mode", totally motionless and silent, and always taking his pre-alloted time to make an action.

Re: Poker After Dark thread (week of 11/12 - Show Open)
 

At least Ivey was able to get a word out of him.

"I didn't see 'em".

Re: Poker After Dark thread (week of 11/12 - Show Open)
 

Hellmuth's antics against donks are rather funny, as his criticism's are usually valid.

When made against non donks though they just come across so ignorant and make him look so stupid.

I think he thinks that his comments will somehow manipulate his opponents into playing differently. He clearly doesn't like people raising too much after he limps, so he makes a big production, accusing them of playing wild, hoping it will stop them from doing so? Or he claims to be limping with small pairs as an attempt to trap to scare them into not doing so?

I think he thinks he can manipulate them into playing a style he likes more... but I highly doubt that it works. Hell I'd want to reraise him even more after I realized he was doing this.

only reason to watch a lot of the time is shannas chest [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

I think he just likes the sound of his own voice.

Hellmuth used to be entertaining. But then he just kept using the same schtick, over and over again. It's irritating because he always says the same stuff, acts the same way. He's always criticizing others, saying that he's the best hold 'em player in the world, yet somehow he's always on the shortstack.

I'm actually surprised he hasn't gotten sick of himself yet.
