Default Yay, the fun HSP episodes are starting next week

By the looks of the preview, here will be the setup of the table for the next few episodes...

Seat 1: Brian Townsend
Seat 2: Jamie Gold (then Sam Farha?)
Seat 3: Todd Brunson
Seat 4: Paul Wasicka
Seat 5: Barry Greenstein
Seat 6: Eli Elezera
Seat 7: Jen Harman
Seat 8: Erick Lindgren


If my Sam Farha guess is correct, then it will be interesting to see how aba handles having him to his left. Will also be interested to see if aba 3 bets with any marginal hands PF (which is common place online, but rare and frowned upon live).

Pretty interesting mix of players... two gamb00lers, with the rest of the table being solid, selectively aggressive players.

Preview of the episode can be found at the end of this clip: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-tr8C2RpmI8

Seat 3: Todd Brunson

Yawn.

Seat 4: Paul Wasicka

Looks like he's going to just take up space like Bob Stupak. The difference is Stupak was entertaining.

Seat 5: Barry Greenstein

He's pretty boring.

Seat 6: Eli Elezera

God no.

Seat 7: Jen Harman

Pretty boring.

Seat 8: Erick Lindgren

Yawn

Harman wasn't boring when she was drunk.
I agree about Brunson, Wasicka, and Elezra being no fun.
Lindgren and Barry are fine because they play excellently.

Todd Brunson is not a great player?

I find Eli entertaining when he plays atrociously loose poker and then makes jabs at good players like Antonio and Barry.

"About time Antonio gets what he deserves!"
"Barry is playing like tournament!"

That's the thing - they are too good. It's more fun to see people who have some flaws in their game (Gold, Matusow, etc).

I would rather see good poker. If you want to see terrible players with lots of leaks try Celebrity Poker [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img].

Looks like a pretty good table. Harman & Wasicka are the only dead weight in terms of entertainment value. Everyone else is at least pretty aggressive so there should be some confrontations. There's not really anyone to heat up the action like Dan N or Mike M though, so that sucks.
