I want to break Gold's nose real bad.

Terrible poker in this episode. I don't want to talk about the AA vs KK hand, I'm just going to pretend it never happened. Greenstein's J9 call was pretty atrocious, even against Sammy he just wasn't beating anything. Guy's checkraise was just bizarre and pretty terrible, although Gold managed to turn it into a good play by making an even worse call.

3. Jamie has quickly become the most annoying TV poker personality ever, and with guys like Phil Laak and Humberto Brenes in the running that's saying an awful lot.

Humberto who? Never heard of him.

Laak is not even in the running. Tony G would have to be a contender though.

Edit: And in a sane world, Hellmuth would be on this list too, but he's outclassed.

Doyle is funny as hell.

Antonio: "Sick versus sicker"
Doyle: "You mean dumb and dumber?"

*when they are discussing about Gold check-raising in the dark*
Doyle: "What has poker come to?"

Doyle: "If my daddy knew I was a loser in this poker game he'd come out of the grave and beat the heck out of me"
Barry: "Exactly lol"

why was barry's call atrocious? it's farha. i bet sammy's 3 barreled barry there with much less before.

I love Barry, but i guess he was steaming pretty badly later on in the episode: the A7 hand (like the J9) wasn't good, but he managed to catch the A on the turn. OOP against Sammy...I really don't like either of the hands.

sick episode. farha/gold was painful to watch, but i really liked how jamie thought he was hustling farha with a much, much better hand only to find himself rereraised in the dark and slowrolled by pocket aces. pure gold. [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

i still don´t get why farha didn´t shove the river. i mean, which hand could gold make all that check-raise in the dark [censored] with while whining how farha had aces and he couldn´t fold? JJ-KK, right?

seems like farha will go down as the guy who had the opportunity to bust the two biggest donks in tv poker histoy - and just couldn´t pull the trigger.

I don't post very often, but if ever a post deserved to be QFT'd, this post deserved to be QFT'd.

I still like Gold.He is a terrible player, but he is a gracious loser and makes a hell of a TV.

[Wilpro]

Seriously crap episode. Wish they would get rid of these donks and bring some Internet pros in to feast on Guy, wanna see an allout bloodbath.
