i totally agree. Those men in tuxes drinking tea commenting on the durrrr challenge was just facepalm. And I think most of us associate british narration with wild life programs and documentaries too much.

I'm sure he's gonna give up if he doesn't hit a straight in that J7 hand against durr. he just needs to bet whatever comes on the river but I dont think he would have. maybe he was unlucky with his timing when durr had nuts with AK, but that also felt a little clumsy. with the dynamics i think durr kinda expected Daniel to raise turn other than that gabe is starting to become really annoying, but the mount rushmore joke was good :D

he didnt really expect a raise, its more like he thinks that daniel is very frustrated in general and particularly against tom and its obvious and when Daniel calls the flop he has a decent hand and Dwan is going to take him to value city if he has Ax, and will probably try to hold on to a pair, basically he doesnt want to give Daniel the chance to check the turn back with a weak ace imo.

he's just giving off vibes like any old standard sub-par nl100 player, it's easy to see when he's frustrated and it's easy to anticipate his moves. Calling a 3bet with J8o against one of the world's best is also very bad, especially since it's not even multiway. he's been (rightly) criticizing hellmuth for not keeping up with the poker evolution but he should seriously start re-evaluating his own game too

Dwan's showdown winnings are outrageous. So far he has been shoved on by K7 with a pair of 7's on the flop, 97 with a pair of 9s on the flop, K3 with a pair of 3's on the flop, and everyone pays him off with the most marginal hands on scary boards. I think Daniel is just trying to "soul read" or bluff Dwan out of a huge pot because Daniel really cares about what people think of him and right now he is thought of as the fish and the best way to change that perception is to play a sick hand with Durrrr. It seems like he is almost going after Durrrr, occasionally 3betting garbage, just so he can get in a huge hand that gets talked about on the forums like the hand vs Sammy George.

Pretty sure farha is a baller buisness man and doesn't get his income from poker.

im pretty sure gabe is on tilt with the producers deliberately trying to make him look stupid
i got the feeling they want him out of the show thats why theyre doing this

lol @ Philips flipping k7s and saying "See, I had a pair..see!"

When he tries to make himself look cool, he makes himself look retarded
