Last few episodes of the standard recorded program have been decent. Theirs a new line up in the one released tonight which includes JRB and Keating. Player on tilt alert.

The final line up is quite good. Persson/Dnegs combo is entertaining with some interesting pots, although nothing spectacular. Much much MUCH better than the previous one.

There is a new season premiering tonight. Going from the timings I think it was filmed at the time they did the big live stream several months back. That would mean players like JRB, Tilly, Berkey, Rob Yong and maybe even Nik Airball? We will see, I am just guessing.

Would have liked to have seen JRB pull the trigger with TT vs Robl on the river.

For max pain? I think he gets snapped off ..
1) Robl was the PF 3b .. JRB shouldn't have AA when he snap calls PF
2) What strong hands does JRB have when he also basically snap calls OTF?

3) JRB should be raising Turn with any 2pr/set now that there's two flush draws out there. It's possible that he does pot control but he also should be bloating the pot when strong since he wont get paid on blank Rivers when he's ahead.

4A) What boats does JRB have when it's the 7c OTR .. only 55 .. and Robl is always calling when only losing to one holding
4B) What flushes does JRB bet River with when the Board pairs? He could've repped 7x clubs, but the 7c hit River and he's taking a Showdown with any other flush when the Board pairs.

Typical JRB (or any of us) when we're running hot .. taking a marginal spot too far. What does he beat here? Only 88/99. Certainly his history with Robl is there .. both as Backer (no more) and when they've played against each other. JRB just wants to beat him in a large 'high profile' hand.


Speaking of .. how absolutely dangerous is Robl? He calls out the AJ, but in Negreanu style pays it off anyway. He basically put on a clinic in the NGNF hybrid cash game also. It was JRB's job to set up games so that Robl could actually play since LOTS of Players don't even want to sit down with him.

I had heard/seen some indicators that Rick Solomon is now JRB's Backer but nothing in this episode was mentioned.

Very surprising how quiet 'Prince' Charles has been .. but lack of cards can do that. This isn't a super soft gambly HCL table! GL

Canceled after WSOP but my sub is still good til 9/5. Looks like a great lineup but it’d be nice to have at least one super pro in the mix. JRB definitely knows how to host a juicy game.

Have a steamed up action player put on triple straddle to 16K. Get AK, reraise the action, flop top pair on dry board and get second pair jam all in

Had no idea there was even a new season, just no longer has the same gravitas.

Rob Yong - The absolute most boring nit. Sits around complaining and “Needling” as he folds to what seems like a 10% VPIP

(Through Ep1 and every stream I think I’ve seen him on)

It’s the age of streaming, stuff rolls on all the time and unless it’s something like last season of Game of Thrones there’s usually no buzz of upcoming stuff

But yeah we’ve been watching poker on TV for a few decades and no longer regard those on TV as icons so yeah not same gravitas

Why are they bleeping out swearing on a paid service? If it’s for potential replays on broadcast TV, fine, but why do it on the app?

They also do it on the No Gamble No Future

I love Robl plugging these dumb sites verbally, LOL

Talking about England, AJ goes “you know what the number one baby name in England is? Will give you a taste of what the world is about… Muhammad

Felt… awkward.

If the number one baby name in Qatar for the last year was Bill, would you find that interesting?

I find neither interesting, but a saying "It'll give you a taste of what the world is about" "What happened to John and Tom" (Something like that)

Kind of give implications that it's a bad thing. No?
Can we cancel AJ? He's horrible on the show
