...i think shes a pretty good co-commentator, but giving her the job of calling every action is a bad move. first off, all of her lines are scripted. its pretty easy to tell shes not just calling it off the cuff, but just reading lines that either she or somebody else prepared. this really hurts the way hands are presented to the audience in more ways than one. it just feels more like a TV show instead of a live action game. also, while i do like her, shes not a professional player. she knows the basics but most of her commentary is just low level, obvious stuff... "and sam will need a 3 or hes out" ..."and the odds are now 50-50, its a true coin flip".
still looking forward to the rips, though, society. thanks in advance. youre a beast.
