Default What\'s up with Gabe and his co-host always badmouthing each other?

Is that whole thing an act?
I started watching HSP again, and i have no clue how old these episodes are (one of them Brad booth bought in with a cool million, if that helps).

But in these episodes, at the beginning, Gabe will make comments about the other dude calling his agent and whining about him or something like that.

And then in all the shows afterwards there seems to be some hostility between the 2 announcers

so does anyone know what the deal is?

I'm with you bro, it's a weird dynamic and an odd joke, they seem serious at times

Gabe Kaplan is killing me. "Kotter" sucked and he was an average stand-up, but HSP is hilarious.

One of the funniest moments ever in television has to be when Kaplan did the final interview with main event winner Stu Ungar and asked him about the $500 bucks he had lent him. I'm cracking up now.

i personally find their banter to be very funny, although to me it obviously comes off as a joke.

Pretty impressive actually because there seem to be a large number of ppl on these forums that take them seriously.

This is about the third post on this subject ive read here.

In the line of Andy Kaufman, Sarah Silverman, "Larry Sanders", Larry David, etc. Sometimes the best routines are "dead-pan".
I want to play no-limit with anyone who takes Kaplan seriously.
