nice work delaying the start 15 minutes, fuck you brett favre

[actyper]

I played 1B, 2B, 3, 4, 5. Look for the Asian guy.

[pinata242]

I wonder why my DVR picks up the 1am & 2am EDT broadcasts and not the first showings...

Hopefully it wasn't affected by Favre's latest bid for attention.

[Red Dog]

I can't wait for that douche who kept bluffing and showing his bluffs to get bounced.

agreed. i also want to see his girlfriend cry.

[LorenzoL]

I have to wait until August 27th for TSN to start showing the main event. Bastards!!!

[actyper]

I've just been downloading them instead.

[Deftones]

So I watched this week's episodes. How does that guy lay down fucking kings against Raymer in that spot? Only one hand beats him.

[mgbfan]

And it's not like Raymer is going to be pushing like mad with AA. Yeah, really strange.

[Deftones]

I hope that guy's friends and family disowned him.

[outcastja]

Great last hand tonight.

[El Scorcho]

lol @ all the pussies and their bubble play


yeah i'd do the same cuz i'm also a pussy

[mgbfan]

Man, I don't believe in hitting women, but if I was at the table with that older blonde lady who goes psycho every time she has a chip in the pot, I think I'd be tempted. Shut the hell up. She got in AJ vs AT, saw no danger at any street, then insisted that "it's never easy." Jesus, it doesn't get much easier than that, lady.

[El Scorcho]

my favorite was the AQ hand she had where she hit her Q on the hand and had the hand won and kept begging for another Q

and then she got it and flipped out

christ almighty

I can't believe that one guy actually called the camera over to show his pocket Ks. If you're going to be a pussy and you're at an outer table with no card-cams, don't advertise your pussiness on national television.

Guy beside me folded KK pre on the bubble to an aggros raise. A few hands earlier the same guy reshoved allin, turned around and started pumping his fists to his buddy, pretty much telling all that he had AA. The original raiser had to still call though as it wasn't much more.

Yeah "ESPN, come here and look how much of a pussy I am!" isn't really a brilliant move. Agreed.

I was hoping you were the asian that told Hellmuth to shut up.

But then I realized you weren't after he tanked for a while to determine if he should call with JT on a JT5 board lololol

She was really annoying. I probably would have intentionally gone all in with 2-7 just to get knocked out so I wouldn't have to hear her yap for hours.

[Red Dog]

Why did it take so long for that guy who knocked out Phil so long to call the 2 all-ins when he had top-2 pair?

[Quake1028]

at the guy who folded AKs to Ivey and then told him about it. Reminded me of a similar situation a few years ago, I think it was with Ivey as well.

[Deftones]

I love how Phil Helmuth whines and complains at how bad players are, yet he slowplays aces, and gets cracked by 2 hands who just call the BB. God he's a fucking idiot.

The Ivey "You folded AK to a single raise preflop?" face looks strikingly like his reaction to Tilly's "I thought you had pocket kings" hand. Basically if you ever play with Ivey and you see this face directed at something you did, just quit the game altogether.

lol, haven't downloaded day 4 yet but no I don't think that was me. Next week you can watch Sebok pwn me though.
