Poker night in American cash game ft Doug Polk and HashtagKing - Page 8 - Poker News

What a ****show. Disgusting. What picture of the sport does this show paint to the casual viewer? Why not have some class on the show? Some sportsmanship? Look at how people like Doug Polk and Isaac Haxton conduct themselves at the table. Even guys like Bowker and Torelli. That's the real pros.

Why let a mouthy buffoon sit at a table for 45 mins when he doesn't have money for the buyin and try to pawn off his fake watches? Why let that fat prick Deeb be abusive towards players? So cringe.

I blame the producers for this disaster.

Poker isn't a esport it's gambling scumbags like to gamble period. Without hashtag the stream is unbearably boring it's as entertaining as watching a live 1-2 game.

Everyone is a knit and the few girls that show up have a vpip of 5% and probably as big a piece of themselves as cantu.

I guess Deeb is a confirmed little sissy boy, no man should ever let another man talk about his wife like that.

Everyone is projecting their reality onto others. Sorry, I just broke your brain again.

If you imply physical violence that's ******ed. That would get Deeb banned, kicked from the show, arrested. If you mean calling the floor and/or producers and insisting he get kicked out immediately after he did the insulting then yes I agree, he should've done that.

But Deeb himself is a bully douchebag. He just ran into a bigger douchebag.

Until the day chess requires a bankroll and luck becomes apart of the game you can pass that foolery off to someone else.

iirc, hashtag king hadn't busted yet, so why would he try to get the spot at the table removed? Just solid business acumen in that regard.

Hashtag King is such a joke of a human being that you literally can't take anything he says with any degree of seriousness. If a guy wearing two watches and a leather jacket with shorts who has the emotional maturity of a grade schooler tried to insult my partner, I'd be laughing too hard to respond in kind.

Understandably lots of people like to watch train wrecks but the hash tag dude was almost unbearable and really difficult to watch. It was like kindergarten banter; you're stupid, no you are blah blah blah. If PNIA is trying to make the show more than just about the poker there's lots of things they can do. Bad TV is watching him talk

I gotta say I was bummed to see Polk laughing along with HTK on some of his 'jokes' (ie, insults). That was very poor form and showed a great lack of respect for the rest of the players at the table. Then to see Doug post up a video saying how inappropriate the behavior was by HTK just seemed weak.

I definitely lost respect for Doug Polk by watching this PNIA episode. I wish he would've been the better man and stood up against the HTK's bad behavior at the time, instead of laughing along, and then complaining on YouTube the next day.

Not sure what you are exactly talking about FartsGalore, I was trolling him the entire time and called him a "****ing clown" on the stream. The problem is he just yells over you if you try to talk. I can laugh at what is happening and it doesn't mean I am supporting him in the least.

I also trolled him with sayings like the above saying.

I'm a bit disappointed in you too.

Deeb, Cantu, THK are all let's say not "top shelf humans" and you're still in a category that's 100x above them but you could have done much better in terms of your own behavior on the show.

People who pay for an accountant would run from an individual as this.

Anybody that thinks anybody that said he was doing this for his accounting business and doesn't realize the person was being sarcastic has to be a bit dense.

What a classy person does is control themselves and not laugh. Moreover they say something to stop out of line behavior immediately even if it doesn't attack them personally - but hey that's next level.
