I wish one of these 'Online stars' play like the (supposedly) big boys and size up every one.

I think Antonious does it pretty well. He's respected live and online.


Other than that:
All of you talk from a poker-perspective.
I thought they way he played was boring. Everyone was making fun of Bob Stupak in season 1, now Jman plays the same way.
I can understand why he played that way, he didnt know anyone of them (at least i think he didnt), and didnt want to gamble too much.

Hopefully he'll be invited a second time and show that he can be a good TV poker player.


Other than that, i can understand the producers. Imagine all of the players at the table were like Jman, nobody would watch the show, except all the true poker players (most of the people on this board). Everyone else in the states would hate it, because it would look akward.

That makes no sense. Every one had access to the HSP videos. Sure, they showed a few hands, but he at least should have gone through all of the videos that are publicly available. Also, the argument that he didn't want to gambool doesn't make much sense either. He saved 500K for next day (if he played), so what's wrong with lagging it up in the two hours?

Any way, I guess every one is saying the same thing over and over.

JMan, good luck in the next episodes, if you get called.
