Poker After Dark thread (week of 11/5 - Of Mouth and Men)

[Passaman]

Obviously Boston was added at the last minute because Hellmuth didn't make it. There is absolutely no way he will ever be on televised poker again.

Mike Matusow is seriously a terrible, terrible player. it's so annoying that he talks about running bad in his interview, when he would've had enough chips to survive the flip if not for limping like 78o UTG and firing 3 barrels into 3 people on an AQT board.

and him betting that queen high 4 clubs board with QJ no club earlier in the week is sooo bad. Like I guess if he wants to bet it's fine, but after it he's like "well I put him on no club" and Antonio and Paul are like WTF MATE ur a dizonk.

I'm so sick of tourney donks being like "oh I sensed weakness so I bet 1/10 of the pot on the river." you didn't [censored] sense weakness you're just guessing you moron. /rant

matusow is so washed up

Alan Boston annoying checklist:

- Bitching at the waitress for messing up his drink order
- Complaining because he isn't getting any cards, can't flop a pair, etc
- Yelling instead of speaking
- "I'm not a poker player, I'm not a poker player, I'm not a poker player"...
- Signing up for a NLHE tourny and then complaining when a guy moves all-in
- Complaining about the pocket cams
- Trying to be funny, when he is not

All of this in two episodes. Great for TV, no doubt!

Right on the money, except to me it's bad for TV, dude's proved to be the most annoying player at a table that has Jamie Gold at it? I didn't think that was possible

but constantly complaining about not getting cards is pissing me off watching my tv. and to each his own, but at a 6 player table in a tv tournament, you'd think by hour 3 you'd know the guy's name across from you.

and quit complaining about doing everything wrong, the only thing this guy had going for him was Unger stories, and even those weren't very good

Problem with Gold is that he's a total calling station. Mike put him on a weak ace the whole way but couldn't get him to fold.

yeah, but if we all know you're not gonna get Jamie gold off a weak ace without being able to puch him all in(and manybe not then) matusow should know it too...You probably couldn't get him off of middle pair in most cases

[Will The Thrill]

i think Jamie's biggest problem is he says what he's thinking too much, i think Wasicka was close to folding that straight until Jamie said "you actually have a hand, i thought you were trying to bluff me off of it"

and there's nothing worse in an interview than the player complaining that he NEVER wins a race, then play smarter and avoid putting yourself in races all the damn time.

Has there ever been a worse player than Boston on PAD? He's got all categories cornered: he plays boring poker, he plays bad poker, he's loud and annoying, and he sounds like a genuinely nasty douchebag.

Are you sure about that? The gimmick of the week seems to be "Talkers", and unfortunately Boston fits right in. It's Wassicka that seems to be an alternate, if there is one.
