Poker Den, The Big Game

[lazaroonie]

.,,or whatever it is called. Hadnt seen this before. Quite liked it. A bit more "raw" than the other cash games we see on the telly, with the Devilfish fairly getting tore into Roland for have the cheek to have a pair of aces.

Plenty of fruity language, just like in real life poker !


Hellmuth, 11 bracelets, and is it fair to say, a complete cash game fish ?

Harsh if you ask me, maybe cash isn't his strongest discipline but I would imagine he's still an excellent cash player...

I watched some on poker tube, rofl when Tony G sits down. He's telling people what to do, how to play and hitting everthing, very funny tv.

Is this what you are talking about ?

Is it not overly offensive to call a player "  Russian ".   I don't mind mouths,  I like DN, Hellmuth and Mike Matasou.  I hate watching Tony G though, especially when he wins.

i can see no offence in it,he was russian after all.

but im a big fan of mr g so perhaps im biased.

[Sark79]

True, he is a Russian.  But it is just the way he says things like "back to Russia", etc.  I like other players who win and keep quiet.  He always has to rub the guys face in it,  why?    what good does that do?  .

a complete cash game fish ?

I think he promotes himself as being a complete fish at cash, he seems to revel in it, always writing stories and articles about how he's getting destroyed by this player or dominated by that player, and seeing him play cash you wouldn't believe he's tournament success.

I genuinely believe that he thinks him being poor cash game player magnifies his tournament achievements, and helps further substantiate him as the world best tournament player ever.

I think it may be a bit more meaningful than that, coming from a Lithuanian - Baltic country natives often really aren't big fans of their Russian neighbours.

I am assuming this is still filmed in the same place out in maidstone "in the middle of nowhere" as most of the other partypoker stuff ?

Marty Wilson was once telling the story of the (quite) well known pro who after suffering a couple of horrendous bad beats in front of the cameras was found wandering in the fields surrounding the studio screaming at himself, and generally beating himself up....apparantly took about 2 hours to calm him down.

I wont say who it was....   

[Matchroom Sport]

Last night was show 3.  There are still 5 more shows to go out.

There is more exciting play to come!

[Jim-D]

I do wish the commentators would shut up so we can hear all the table banter.
