i don't think those trip Aces could have been played worse

Is Funston a joke? This guy makes watching almost unwatchable.

Typical lame ESPN coverage. I guess bet sizes are only important enough to mention every once in awhile.

Ditto. How hard is it to put a graphic up telling us the size of the pot?

[Anderson1]

are these episodes available online somewhere? tried looking for a torrent, but unable to find any.

I thought coverage was engaging. As far as criticising pro play...i'm not quite sure.

One thing that im surprised hasnt been mentioned yet is when the guy flopped the wheel and Kathy Leibert flopped top set. I think she bet he raised and she made a huge reraise and he just called???? And then when the board pairs on the turn he then decides to go all in? Wtf that was very strange. How do you not get all in on that flop all day I dont know but to then wait untill your drawing dead before you get your chips in hmmm.

THE USPC 05 has been the most entertaining poker in years. I like the whole attitude of the show. The blues music playing in the background, the lighting, the comedy. It just looks fun.

"I should raise here because people can have two pairs and sets and better straight draws. Okay, she reraised, so she has a set. I am gonna get tricky and smoothcall this and raise on the turn. Aw, crap, the board paired. I'm beat. [censored]. I should fold. Shouldn't I? Fold! Ah, screw it, I'm just gonna put my money in and pray. Maybe she has the other two pair or something."

Who knows? They were scheduled to air last night at 7:00 and 8:00 Central time, but ESPN instead reran episodes 1 and 2 that they ran last week. Maybe they aired episodes 3 and 4 at 3:00 in the morning.

ESPN took a year to start airing this tournament, and now they're changing the schedule so that nobody can tell when new episodes are going to air. Unbelievable!
