anyone watch high stakes poker tonight? Jamie Gold is annoying and seemingly easy to read on tv but he sure can manipulate people with his relentless jabbering. I can't believe he talked Farha out of shoving the river in that big hand.

Hes also a sleazy dude. He thought farha had AA, and said it as soon as sammy flipped his hand. When farha told jamie that he did him a $180,000 favour, jaimie tried to tell him he thought he was winning and doing sammy a favour... lol.

Also, he didn't HAVE to call the 90k preflop... they were all acting dark, and he could've waited to see a flop before he acted (though I think he loses more money if he does this).

Yeah, I lost a lot of respect for Jamie last night...shame. Can not believe Sammy didn't push the river. All that said, I really thought Sammy should just push the "in the dark" betting after he said he thought he was weak and then shut his mouth...his acting was great in the beginning, but he overdid it some imo.

I love watching sammy go on a tear.

Doyle is a bit annoying as well. I get what's he saying about the game not being what it normally is, but just shut up about it and play the way you play when it's your hand. That said tho, it took like an hour for 5 hands because of the "nonsense".
