Inappropriate Commentary on LATB Inappropriate Commentary on LATB

From 1:40 to 2:05 there is a conversation about how a female player has to "change her underwear right now....she's dripping" because of her excitement about a hand.

Why is this is any way acceptable? This is extremely off-putting, and at worst sexual harassment (IMO it is, in a subtle way). No female player would like some random dude commenting about her in this way.

IMO Fire the announcers and bring in professional representatives for the game.

Did the female player ask you to step up to bat for her or are you doing it of your own accord?

If the latter, how do you know how she feels?

op...if you don't like the commentary how about you just don't watch? or mute it? why do people like you think that because YOU don't like something that people need to be fired? it's not that big of a deal, and neither are you.

Really, OP ? Did you listen to the discussion just before that, beginning about 1:30, about how they often refer to a guy as "creaming his jeans" when he gets AA, prior to the one specific comment you got all SJW about ? Nice selective whining on your part.

Yes, it was low brow, but their comments on this hand are not gender-specific. Seriously, why do you try and deny equal treatment for women , however disgusting such commentary is generally.

Look they really suck as announcers, "like a boss", in my view, but so what ? I am not their audience. Do you have some personal agenda against these two commentary clowns ?

(LOL, I did not know one of the clowns is the 2+2 poster "Limon". That is funny and makes my question whether you have a personal agenda very relevant.)

OP I have to assume this is a troll post or you are of the 2016 type who gets recreationally offended by everything. It was a joke. The commentator (Limon) makes jokes about guys changing their underwear too, where are all the social justice warriors defending all the guys ? I feel you are sexist for making this thread actually, if I am being honest.


edit/ Also the commentator is a reg in the casino and knows like 90%+ of the players and is on at least friendly terms with them as well.

LATB is less PC than most of the mainstream poker shows, but I think it is generally pretty good natured. Would you be as offended if they made a comment about a guy getting a boner because of his excitement about a hand?

I'd be willing to bet that if that similar comment was made about a male there is 0% chance you decide its necessary to start this thread.

Sure, comments like that might seem a bit juvenile compared to the type of stuff you typically hear on ESPN's coverage of the WSOP, but not really anything worth getting your....feathers ruffled over.

Limon is a no class talentless piece of LA garbage. Also...Limon. Can you unban me on Twitch and unblock me on Twitter?
