if the commentator says "he's got a lot of chips in front of him", "richard yong: OUR CHINESE BILLIONAIRE!!!!!!!", or "he's getting low on ammo" (when someone is shortstacked) somebody ****ing shoot me.

HE JUST CALLED POCKET KINGS BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN FFS IS THIS REAL LIFE

absolute WOAT commentator.

when phil ivey floats IP with a naked ace high the commentator says that ivey thinks it's "worth the call". at least another bad commentator like robert williamson III can recognise a ****ing float.

I AM SO MAD RIGHT NOW GUISE, I'M REALLY ENJOYING THIS SHOW BUT I'M TILTING OUT OF MY MIND AT THE SAME TIME.

Ivey calls a raise with K rag from the blinds. Action goes 3 way to the flop and Ivey bricks on A high flop. OR bets, other player calls and action goes to Ivey. Ivey tanks for like 10 seconds and folds. The announcers says something along the lines of, "Ivey doing some quick math. Once again he makes in impeccable decision."

LOL worst commentating ever AINEC

Grub Smith is an "entertaining" commentator. He has commentated on poker telecasts for years. The problem with these shows is that he is commentating by himself.

Also, you can tell in alot of spots that there is some great table talk going on, but they have the ****ing mic's drowned out by the commentator. WHY??????????

I have observed, on more than one occasion, that the cards dealt and the graphics for the cards dealt aren't the same.
Example:

Cards dealt


Cards shown on graphic


The K is changed to the K, and in this hand makes a huge difference. Also, the commentator talks about the hand as though the K is the actual flop card.

Anyone see the hand where Negreanu called like 30k OTT with a naked gutshot OOP, river came a straight card that didn't help him, he checked and the businessman checked behind with his set?

Negreanu says he had a huge draw but the graphic said it was just a gutshot. Given that the Ivey hand with Q10 doesn't surprise me at all. I remember last year the aussie millions had some more problems with graphics and production during the cash game too with mixing up the suits of cards...

For those saying the commentary is awful I agree. But it has always been the case with the aussie millions that they get some great footage and then f.ck it up by getting in a clueless amateur and some only slightly less clueless 'expert' to do commentary. Must just be a heck of a lot cheaper than actually paying a top player? Or they just don't care that they end up ruining what could be an excellent production if there was someone explaining the pros thought processes.

I didn't get that float at all. Seems like it would just be mega -ev in a vacuum, but if Ivey plays with him alot he could just have some sick read that the guy will k/f a set on any semi-scary turn. I dunno. It's really wtf that he folds to Ivey there. Nittiness on a whole new level.

This has happened before on the Aussie Millions coverage, kind of astounding they can be that incompetent.


Did anyone else think it was weird when those 2 Phil Ivey "fans" came over and started kissing him?

i just hope for Daniel that some of the graphics were wrong because judging otherwise he played like complete horse **** in the cash game episodes like calling a ps bet with a naked gutshot with 2 flush draws out there and then calling again when its raised behind him by a ****ing annoying asian total nit who only plays sets...

speaking of this asian nit, he ****ing annoys me... get him out of the ****ing game!!! i liked the part where he folded 66 getting like 5:1 pre against 5 other players... annoys me even more when Daniel gives him action...

just amazing to see how much better guys like Trickett and Mercier are in cash games compared to Negreanu...

Dwan still playing his 2008 loose passive **** style, which will send him broke on FT when he plays real players again...

loved to see Ivey winning the 250k of course...

Cliffs: Asian nit annoys me

Asian guy is biggest nit on earth, you have to watch some of the other episodes to see that, and Ivey probably knew that this ****ing asian nit guy is bigger nit than even the uber-nit himself Howie Lederer ever was... i think this ****ty asian nit would even have folded if the turn was an off suit 2, thats how big a nit he is...

Great read by my main man Phil ivey... as Norman Chad would say...
