For those interested in a trip down memory lane...Poker Stars are re running the EPT from 2004 on Twitch/Youtube with "modern" commentary from Hatigan and Stapleton. The poker host is a young Caroline Flack  Sad

I watched about 30 minutes of the first one and found it quite enjoyable. It was good fun watching the terrible play until one hand tilted me so much I had to turn it off.

Guy who eventually wins limps cutoff w 74s, 2 folds and bb checks QThh

Flop KJxhh check, bet, raise, 3bet, call.
Turn Kx. check, bet 1/6 pot, snap fold by QThh. Cutoff shows air, everyone else at the table gives a round of applause.

I saw that; I just kind of thought that was terrible and he got away with it.  Still happens we can move on.

I do, but haven't spoken to him in ~10 years. Think he was working for Unibet last I heard.

What was the hand? 99?

A9 vs set of on the flop.  He was kind of pot committed when he called.  It just looked really bad.

Not sure it was a flush draw, more a gutshot to a 4 straight on the flop.
