When I do go to vegas and don't FT one in 30 tries...that might be an ouch.

Don't worry when you do make your final table, we will make sure there are no fans to support you, we will remember this thread you made.

Never said people should have nobody there, just not everybody. And you can remember, I'll be around...there will be 2 people there at best I would invite, and would make sure they didn't act like like fools because they were on tv.

Oh the ironing! A native of the nation that invented the word "obnoxious" trying to pass the buck.

Re: Brits are the biggest Tools!

It's not that Brits are complete tools or Americans are dull, boring and arrogant, it's that judging a country's inhabitants by the actions of a few clueless/immature drunks who've never been on TV before or lame commentors is just incredibly weak. And weak seems to be well represented here.

Re: Brits are the biggest Tools!

I guess I miss being able to enjoy televised poker. Now its like Jersey Shore..have to shut the volume off. Imagine any other sport where every single play sounded like a bunch of screaming kids. Every single play. Over and over. I would be just as disturbed if every American there screamed at the outcome of every single hand like animals.....chanted, waved flags and whatever the hell else. I get the yelling/cheering, but when it sounds like the teen girls that screetch at the top of their lungs its ridiculous. Period.

You'd think they would know not to act like idiots then.

Re: Brits are the biggest Tools!

If Yanks think these guys are too loud then they probably are.

I'm not a fan of brainless loud noises whatever the nationality. Hachem's fans used to irritate me with their ozzie ozzie ozzie chants.

I think players wives are the worst though. Especially the yanks with their high pitched nasal screeching. Who was that idiot that did a little hand mime whilst shouting, "stack 'em stack 'em stack 'em, to the top!" what a stupid cow.

Re: Brits are the biggest Tools!

Now wasn't the big drop enjoyable to watch when people are not screaming like lunatics every single hand? I actually wondered if Sam didnt invite any or they were banned....either way a pleasure to watch.
