The one good thing about this is you actually see what these people's true bankrolls really are, and the answer is: not much.

I have a feeling that guys like Greenstein/Brunson/Anonious/Ivey have alot more than Benyamine. Just a hunch.

i agree it's lame but it's completely Guy's fault, not at all Benyamine's. nobody in the world would turn down the offer Guy gave him. Benyamine was fine running it once or twice or whatever Guy wanted, even laughed about it when he knew that it was going to be run once.

I don't know how any poker player can talk down or badly about Guy's poker game. The man is obviously smarter than any degenerate at that high stakes table. He's a billionaire who plays nose-bleed stakes for a laugh. Benyamine is a "pro" poker player who got most of his entire bankroll in as a 2:1 dog. Sammy Farha is a mere millionaire hustling rich guys out of money for a living. The kind of money that makes no difference to Guy's life, but all the difference to a degenerate like Farha or Benyamine.

People talk bad about Guy's poker game because he's terrible for the stakes he plays. Not sure what the rest of your paragraph has to do with anything.

After watching tonight's episode, it makes Guy's act of kindness look even better. He got stacked by Doyle tonight and still had mercy. Cool guy all around.

Guy makes this game so much more +EV than even Gold, when he puts it in behind you get the full pot, when he's ahead you make a sad face and get your money back..

That said great gesture by Guy, seems like he's there to have fun whereas some other people are clearly in wayy over thier heads..

He's not terrible but he doesn't care too much about the net result because he's a billionaire. How can a [censored] degenerate card player mock a billionaire as being his "customer"? The money is a joke to Guy. He could flip Farha for all the money he has.

I'm actually quite excited about watching this now as I missed all the links...

I think that Guy has been great for the game...he's there purely to have fun .... Farha however is a fool with his snidey comments etc...When PA won 3/4 hands with the J9 vs KQs, I was extremely happy...

Just have to wait 2 weeks though for it to appear on Pokertube !
