I disagree with the above analysis about the straight flush hand, not because it isn't right but because it wasn't right for this particular instance. David knew Sammy hit the 2, he did a great job selling it and in my opinion he made the wrong decision. Only because he knew Sammy had a set. I think the river action would have been interesting if David calls on the turn because he had Sammy so confident.

BTW, this is the second decent laydown Sammy has made (not that they weren't obvious) but it does seem that when the stakes are higher he plays better.

I can't imagine this show is watchable without Tivo or DVR, I watch it with my wife and we must pause it 20 times.

Also, Gabe is so good. Really keeps the show flowing. I don't hate AJ and if you understand why he is there it makes sense. Overall it is a shame that we are subjected to PAD when HSP is so infinitely good.
