Neither in that post. Gabe didn't have anyone's number. He made some good bluffs last week, but just hit a few hands against Dwan this week. LIke flopping a K with KJ vs AT vs K2. That isn't "having his number".

He played all of last week, or about five hours. It's just a 10+ hour session with a seat redraw in the middle.

Meltzer claiming to have traveled all over the world including being in Chile when Allende was deposed and in Iran when the Shah was deposed. In other words, Meltzer is a CIA agent.

I always get a kick that anybody actually thinks the show is filmed over 10 nights. LMAO.

Lol Tom Dwan really showing he is an idiot savant, with his replies to Allan Meltzers stories. Seems like he never even heard of Allende or Pinochet... Plus describing Korea, China, Jpan as 'one of those' lol.

Amazing.

Just when I was kind of starting to like Alan Meltzer he starts to extensivly lick a spoon and then goes on about how he lived in a cage with his wife eating coconuts and later remarried her in a buddhist ceremony. Wow.

Kaplan with his "welcome back" viagra story saved the akward moment though... wp Gabe

Alan got hungry watching PA eat his ice cream, so he figured he would have a scoop.

(or two.....maybe three)

Like most really smart people, he has a typical natural tendency to "play dumb" around other people and he's processing a lot more a lot faster than you give him credit for.

You'd know that if you weren't so......stupid.

Or he's just not that worldly and knowledgeable about world politics and the political histories of some countries. It's nothing to be ashamed of, it's just the way it is. A lot of people in the US aren't that worldly and cross an ocean to see another continent.

Wasn't this show recorded in November last year ?
On the contrary it makes a lot of sense ; Tom seems to stare at the ceiling requesting that poker god to reverse his losing streak.

Wow, that 67 call for 30K more is so gross... Was really hoping Gabe would hit an ace or king on the turn or river.

That hand pretty much sums up why he wins in other televised games and one of the reasons he's losing in this game. I'm sure the nuthuggers will find an argument due to stack sizes and if he put him on AA, 67 suited's the best hand for it & range/metagame/dynamics etc. but it was pretty bad and he gets lucky as is often the case.

A far likelier explanation is that Tom, regardless of his intellect, is just not curious about world history and world events.

Yeah, I laughed hard at that one. Too bad it seemed to completely go over Meltzer's head, which probably made everyone else feel like it would be impolite to laugh.
