Doesn anybody else think of the NL 100 idiots who flop top set and check it to the river and then bet $1 after listening to Hellmuth talk about trapping his opponents?

Phil doesn't understand that trapping with bottom pair/two-pair usually doesn't work. He's playing so unbelievably terrible on the show; he's a check/calling station that tries to trap people on every single hand.

QFT
There are times when it's appropriate to make fun of somebody's play, but Phil complains the most when he is the one guilty of bad play. Eric should have never seen the turn or river, and TJ pointed that out.

I like PAD more than I did at first. My opinion of WPT and HSP, on the other hand, has declined over time. Earlier in the year PAD and WPT were playing at the same time, and it became clear I preferred PAD. Now it's up against HSP and I may well prefer PAD to that too. I like that PAD shows all the hole cards and most of the hands. The main thing I don't like is the ridiculous format: winner-take-all, shorthanded, single-table tournament. I'll probably go through my entire life without playing that format once. HSP shows so few hands, doesn't show most of the hole cards, throws in scripted bits, bans prop bets, and then introduces their favored prop bet, the 72. Just show some real poker HSP!

He IS a huge fan..."The only one who knows is Doyle!"
It's funny to see how Doyle shoots him down when he starts that whining. It's like watching the old Looney Toons cartoons with Spike & Chester....

Chester: You and me is pals ain't we, Spike? Ya wanna go bury bones? Do ya, Spike? Huh, huh? Do ya?

Spike: N'ah. (Smacks Chester)

those massive overbets were definitely a case of Doyle attempting to piss off Phil for [censored] and giggles

Doyle doesn't give a damn about these tournaments. So, he's having fund messing with Hellmuth.
