what? 100? Most players today advise 20-30 buy ins. About $10mil to REGULARLY play in this game, only need $500,000 to take a shot at it. Need maybe $5 mil to feel comfortable?


Gold is playing much better. I did however love Gabe's line after Gold says he put Eli on Jacks after Eli flipped. "Jamie has great eyesight."

Cannot WAIT for this 500k game. Hopefully some of this stupid crap will subside with Greenstein/Doyle at the table.

Why are they wasting seats with Brandon Adams and Harman??

[/ QUOTE ]

oh and OMGifoldeveryhand(phil galfond) was any better?

Two weeks/episodes and he played 2 hands:

1.Folded QQ to Farha,after checking a harmless flop,and sammy raised the turn

2.Flopped top set with JJ....my grandmother could have played that hand

Geeeez I thought sbrugby/aba played tight.Its amazing that these HS internet pros's that play such an aggro game on-line, look like they have never touched a real deck of cards when they play live,as they truly look uncomfortable in their own skin?

I dont think they have to worry about not being invited back,(as Gabe and Helmuth constantly reffered to)...because they wont.

Gimme a break....you get a chance to play on HS poker,with probably 3-4hrs of edited hands each episode(so I dont want to hear he was card dead BS)...and thats it?

this might be the dumbest thing ever posted

i was going to mention the bias also, but not so harsh, lol.

Jennifer is playing hands, Brandon isnt, but he has Sammy and Jamie to his immediate left. He really cant open much.

At least Phil only has to get by Eli (which is still hard)

What do you expect them to do? Put in 25K prelop with A8 like Daniel so no one can make fun of them. I mean, I probably would, but that wouldnt be smart

[/ QUOTE ]

Harman has played about 5 hands in 4 seasons, Brandon Adams is constantly on camera just folding. Then wowo he 3bets KK and gets everyone to insta muck, what was the point?!
I'd much rather watch someone like Jman play (yes we've only seen him play two hands, but hes got to settle into the game/adjust etc) at least give him a chance.

Put up a table of internet players and i'm sure there would be better more thoughtful action than farha just raisy daisying it (though I do like seeing him do this against DN etc).

Ideal line up would look something like Aba, Antonius, Farha, DN, BB, DB (just to own them), Mike Baxter for his action (regardless of whether he played well at least he played), and Esfandiari. Playing 300/600/1200

Jamie Gold could serve drinks and non-greasy chowmein. [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

im not saying i enjoy watching them play.

im sure most of the hands Jennifer opens she just wins the blinds and dont get televised, but obv i dont know that

as far as the point, I would say he is just hoping he gets KK when it is raised and called in 4 spots before it gets to him

just pointing out i thought it was odd you let out jman. We all know he usually mixes it up more and Im sure Brandon does also, but they are adjusting for the game. They are playing tight hoping to get a hand in the right spot

He must mean Brian Brandon? Although I cannot see why he would ever be included in an "ideal" line-up.

Wait, he might mean Bobby Baldwin, in which case that would be a great idea.
