4st!

Missed the bronze by that......much.

Oh good, I was worried you guys wouldn't find enough to talk about to produce a show this week.

I am sure most of the show surrounds the likely revival of the Pokercast League right? Excited to listen.

I'm coming back, Lee. With bells on....whatever that means.

/me dusts off my commissioner vest.

final table bubble....just call me Mike Sexton

CHROME working like a star

Since Dwan cancelled, did he mention if he will be on next week?

@31:19: NOBODY EXPECTS THE SPANISH INQUISITION!



In all seriousness though, I'm very hopefull that the DOJ makes this as painless for players as possible. We'll see what happens...

15st

The real 15nd

See what bunner is capable of when he sets his heart and mind to task?

Great show guys! I especially appreciated the obvious effort both you and your guests made to clarify when you were talking about known facts and when you were speculating. You got a lot of good info out there while also raising many important questions for future resolution, and that's truly the best you could have done with such a big and evolving story.

Was disappointed that was not yelled immediately after its mention.

btw, wtf happened with Durrrr????

re:^... I saw a RT on pokerscout. I guess he's just trying to be well prepared for a 2+2 interview.

niggling away?

He was having dinner with Howard Lederer at Ellis Island. The two were discussing the remissions process for U.S. players.

Clint Eastwood = The Man With No Name
Lee Jones = The Man With No Answers

(I know....it's early)

yeah Bunner!!!! mad props for expediency

I don't why, but since hearing about this deal I've just been imagining Howard Lederer scurrying out from under a rock:

"O HAI GUISE. GLAD I GOT IT ALL SORTED FOR YOU. K?"

Probably not, but I do wonder how long before we have an HL sighting though.
