Didn't see that one, but Grinder sure put a hurting on the guy with the Bad Ass hat

Ali had a great line about wanting to go up to the table with a sharpie and scribbling out Bad

No worries, just notify the thread when you've caught up on your DVR viewing and we'll all hold off discussing televised hands until then, lol.

True. Lex's hands were edited for time though and no one at his table could see his hole cards 30 minutes later. You would think even the bad players would start looking him up but everyone kept playing pots with him and just kept giving him chips.

I tell ya the WSOP is pushing the shot clock thing yet what I watched last night was brutal. Maria Ho took forever on every decision.

Can only imagine how huge these fields would be if online poker were legal throughout the USA. They might have to finally cave in and raise the buy-in to $20-25k.

Grinder's play yesterday was very entertaining. He was in the zone like a drunk at the table running good/feelin it. I don't mean that as an insult. It was genius but the drunk can be genius at times too. As they have no fear and go with their gut. As long as the drunk has some ability of course.

They have him listed as Michael Marrocco for some reason.

Day 1b feature table has the Grinder Chad Power Maria Ho Randy Pisane and Brian Hastings on one table with 4 scrubs. How is that fair for the both the scrubs and the great players? They are at a major disadvantage.

This must have been artificially done right? No way that was the luck of the draw to get that many great players on one table when there is 250 tables that day.

Anyone else think this or even better know if this was random?
