I brought this up on the first page. Seems a lame way to try to get clicks. Just report the actual size of the pot, any poker fan will find the current ploy annoying and misleading.

I’m sure your team can find a way to fix it as every poker show ever reports the actual size of the pot.

Not those cheeks you won't.

It is like when nude beaches are approved, the nudes are never the ones you really wanted to see uncovered.

2 Asian guys got into it, one is pretending to be a fake Asian mobster/drug lord, and the other is a bipolar schizophrenic?

Either way there’s a lot of threats of murder, F-ing moms, F-ing moms in front of you, torturing one another, leaving bodies in ditches, etc

“Good for poker” as idiots will say

Whether cringe posing or real (actually angry) neither of those guys should be on the show again. Im actually surprised the producers didnt kick them both off, especially Austin guy is far, far over the line with his comments. Could easily be seen as an actual criminal threat, though I dont know how far you have to go to cross the line into criminal territory in that state.

Why are there so many asians on these livestreams? I swear whether it's HCL or this one you have a few e-celebs and the rest of the table is filled with asians.

Ok just read the reddit thread. Jason guy is definitely mentally unhinged/drugged up (probably both). Should never have been allowed on the show and its ridiculous that BigBetPoker are planning to have him on again on friday. The guy should not be given a platform for his own good.

Yea I agree.

All of the clips of him following Wesley around a casino challenging him are really sad/weird.

He definitely has some issues.

He is surely on MDMA, I don't know how else you can explain this clip

Yea it was............ a bit over the top. A smidge too far. And said without hesitation to a guy who's sitting there talking about his mental issues, drug use, and abusive mother. Great crew.

There are a lot of asians in the world, many of them rich, and they have a bigger gambling culture than the western world does. Thus: a lot of rich asian gamblers, even in the west.

Asians just seem to have a cultural/ethnic affinity for gambling. Its a stereotype for a reason.

I don't think those exchanges would be classified as "fun". Seems like the opposite of fun

I really like it so far.

I'm seemingly in the minority but I never had any interest in the HCL all fish lineups. It's like watching a Saturday night 1/2 game, but with different color chips. I understand the appeal more when they are celebrities, like Mr. Beast. But some random donk who owns a chain of dry cleaners? DGAF. Which is to commend you for having a nice mix of pros and recs. This alone, passes HCL.

I'm in a TINY minority here, but the scumbag level on HCL also turns me off. I get that this isn't church, but we really gotta watch a convicted rapist play a real estate swindler and some dude who is just there to recruit marks for his bac scam? Again, it's not church, but if you maintain just the lowest standards here, that's cool.

The set design and graphics and stuff seem fine to me, but I'm clueless on this stuff.

The commentary is good. But I feel that if Jaffe had the right partner, they could really spin some gold.

I disagree that there should be no limps or whatever. The VPIP game is cool. Forces the pros out of auto-pilot. Creates action. But for me personally, I still want them to play some poker. You don't want to push it to where it's just shove shove shove. That's fun for a while maybe, but it's monotonous. I actually like the limps. Part of the fun of something like the VPIP game is that everyone has to come up with a strategy on the fly instead of playing by rote. The fact that limping is part of that strat is interesting. This happens in short deck too and nobody thinks that's boring.

I go to the trop from time to time and I noticed you have what appear to be some more midstakes games. While I'm likely in the minority yet again, I think this would be cool. I loved when LATB was midstakes. It's more relevant to what I play. And it's interesting in it's own way.

Did you ever consider renting the whole thing out? I bet there are some guys who would pay decent money to like, have their bachelor party play and get a recording of their game on the set with all the graphics and commentary.

The problem with limping is that many people dont actually try to play a limping strategy. They just put in some limp/folds with random trash to keep their VPIP high.

With BigBetLive seeming to kinda brush off the altercation and talking about having those two jokers back, this may all be one giant Jake-Paul style scripted "reality" to draw in views

They were both '86ed from the casino and barred from the show.

ok if the altercation was staged then what else is staged? Is it safe to assume the entire stream is fake?
