Unfortunately, the value viewers got from Limon's insightful perspective on live poker paled in comparison to the cringy, painful, belligerent tone he took each and every episode. He's just not as entertaining as he thinks he is.

LATB has done a great job rebranding itself and would be wise to not go down that path again.

Doug Polk Week 2.0 begins tomorrow!

You should have a rule that the commentators play at least once a month in the games they cover. I like the first person insight into the players and situations.

Watching Garrett play is great but is calling/folding as difficult as it appears from the box?

Im not saying Limon wasn't a smart hustler/poker player who told it how it was.The problem is that no one wants to listen to the shrill drunken court jester airing his personal grievances all night. Whatever meaningful information, and there was quite a bit, was lost on the audience die to his Andy Dick meets Sideshow Bob personality. He's like the curly haired, whiskey swilling, Uncle that I never wanted...but 10 minutes a week would be cool.

Fun to watch Polk on tilt. Really makes me feel better about myself.

THIS 100%.

For every positive Limon brought to LATB, he brought 2 or 3 negatives..

Last time Doug and Dan were heads up: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JTyGaZPp7hg

Sick slow roll..lol..

Ryan, how long does it typically take you to respond when a player contacts you about being on a future show?

Doug was crushing it yesterday. What was the final total?

Very

When I went to bed, Doug was up around 50-55K.

The stream ended not so long after that, so unless Dan doubled up at the end, I'm pretty sure he got stuck pretty good..

Did Doug outplay his opponent or was the deck just in his favor last night?

Yes..

I didn't see the hand but apparently Matt Berkey had KQ and on a Q764 board he checkraised flop and shoved turn for 4x pot. What the hell?

The hand where Doug got heaps from Berkey was super LOL worthy.

Is Matt Berkey actually winning in these high stakes NL games?
He is a mega spewtard on LATB the several times Ive seen him play, punting off 200-400bb stacks quite often including several times last night.

It really does seem like Berkey loses more often than not on these TV/Streams.
But you hear about him/Soto winning and losing million dollar pots in "The big games", so maybe losing $60,000 is who-gives-a-****.

Then again, he's pretty upfront about not being sufficiently rolled for games and that he only brought $100,000 etc etc.

Doug's hand with the 77A99 was pretty LOL.
Doug ran really good last night, all while constantly doubling up the Youtube Prankster and his 6K

I find it odd that LATB really isn't advertising/selling the Jungleman factor. I know it's Polk week, but Jungle is a huge get.

So Doug posted on Facebook that they're now longer playing $200/$400 because people who said they were playing were no-shows. I assume it's going to be a 25/50NL

Doug talking about how this is a problem on all these streams/shows because people fly in, make special arrangements.

"People put their name down and don't show up"
This happens every single day on 2/5NL and 5/10NL lists... People just love to be on lists, it's a fetish.

Jungle is just the absolute greatest of all time.

Doug on this Facebook rant about how pros are killing the game, not showing up, Fees chimes in, they go on for 10 minutes...
Doug pans to Jungle sitting there at the table, and asks "How do you feel about all of this Jungle!?"

- Uh, I don't know. We're mad, right?
We're mad! Show me angry!
- Jungle slams his fists on the table

So Berkey is a ****reg and backed out because Josh the fish backed out? Adelstein too?

Where'd you see this info?
I checked Doug'd IG and didn't see any updates.

Is it 25/50 now?

Lately they have been advertising josh showing up and he never shows

I def didn’t cancel and would have played (probably drawing dead), but they changed the game to much smaller and I barely know the rules for PLO which they added. I may be a terrible poker player, but not a flake.

All the lulz @ Doug making videos crying about the fish backing out.

To be totally fair to him about 25% of the blame is on LATB for advertising the lineup in advance, but come on. When these guys expect soft lineups to be handed to them rather than work for them, I have zero sympathy when it doesn't work out.

Respect, Garrett. I didn't think you'd do that.

That's what I figured. Just wondering how this dissolved. They've been promoting this game for so long it just seems bizarre that this happened. The only logical explanation is that the mark quit.
