yeah kaplan kept making a point of saiying "oh and no surprise
that phil galfond is folding", but i don't remember them showing his folded cards a lot. do they expect him to play every hand so he can prove how big his balls are and how good at poker he is?
they need to make hsp more like poker after dark.

Oh yes, that would be just awesome.

If they make it like PoD then the online nits will never be invited obv.
All you see on PoD is champions, bracelet winners etc...you know... the interesting live Pros we like to watch play and talk crap at the table.

Youve all gotta remember this one fact that you haters seem more than willing to forget:

He thought he was guaranteed to come back the next day.

This WASNT his one chance at being on the show, he was in as an alternate for 2 hours basically to fill a seat. Nothing more, nothing less.

With 500k on the table the game would have been miles deeper and he would have played a lot more hands - but ffs, he played for 2 hours. Those of you who dont know what trash you can get playing live for 2 hours have never played live. Ive had 5 hour sessions where i didnt get a single good hand.

[censored] the haters, he turned up to play poker not be a one man band or clown act.

Shoulda thrown 10K in cash at Hellmuth's chest and said something like "there's your damn insurance, quit slowing down the game."
Instant hero status and nit image gone.
Silly idea, I know, but I would love to see Phil's reaction to something like this.

Dude you can't guarentee anything and really you sticking up for the SHIB in every post that says anything negative about them, is well getting creepy. In a gay way.

HSP should have a multiday freeze out with Internet pros vs their standard guys like sammy and helmuth.

Why a freezeout though? I'd much rather watch Farha foolishly donk off $500k being a complete retard.

I love how you are a nit about me guaranteeing something and at the same time say I stick up for them in every post where someone says something negative. Also who wouldn't be gay for this

I think it really sucks he didn't get a fair chance. You can't blame him for playing "nitty" you can only blame the stupid show for not caring enough about the game
