High stakes poker 3 is rigged

Hawk Eye

They just finished filming the third series spot the difference in the two days of filming.

Day1
Ivey
Patrick Antonius
David Benyamine
Negreanu
Brad Booth
John D'Agostino
Brian Townsend (Consistent HS online winner)
Antonio Esfandiari

Day2
Gabe Kaplan
Jamie Gold
Sean Sheikhan
Mike Matusow
Sam Farha
Eli Elezra
Victor Ramdin

im looking foward to see how gold gets on

The ridiculous thing about Day 2 is Gold is probably one of the better players. On Day one he'd be slaughtered.

gilmour

hmm i can see Gold really putting the Mouth on monkey tilt

RasTa

Elezra will shut him up.

gilmour

to be fair the 2nd day does have the more potential entertainment value with Matusow sitting at the same table as the Sheik, who Sam Farha also dislikes. Then Gold thrown in for good measure, will defo be interesting.

Question is, with Kaplan playing, who's going to do commentary? Best commentator about IMO

DS

Where did you get that list? According to CardPlayer.com the following players also played and they're not on your list:
Phil Laak, Chris Ferguson, David Williams, William Chen, Daniel Alaei, Doyle Brunson, Erick Lindgren, Jennifer Harman, Barry Greenstein, Todd Brunson, Paul Wasicka, Dan Harmetz, Dan Shak, Illya Trincher

What's stopping Kaplan from commentating? I'm assuming the commentary isn't live, so unless they don't want to give up the illusion that it is, he could still commentate. Looking forward to seeing him play either way.

Have to say although I do like Kaplan, he'll never take Norman Chad's place in my heart. Jokes about how many ex-wives you have NEVER get old
