Default Re: World Domino Tournament on ESPN now...

I'm glad I wasn't the only one that didn't understand what was going on at the end of these games sometimes.

I understand that when nobody can domino out, the person with the least points wins for their team, but the endgame happens so fast on these shows, I still couldn't process it. These shows aren't very noob-friendly.

I thought it was interesting that the ocmmentators come off as being much better players than the people in the game! Several times they immediately call out a play as a big blunder, and sure enough it will invariably turn out to be a fatal mistake that costs the team a game. I wonder if these guys do the commentary with perfect hindsight, knowing exactly what happened in all the games? Or is it a case of holecard-itis where they let the knowledge of the "hole cards" affect their analysis too much? Something like that, or else those two should form their own team and get into the competition..
