    I say let him back in and then just do a unibomber on his ass....:D

    Really thought the Bad Beat at the end was lovely, although WTF was your man calling with 9's for and how did that hand not end up AI Pre-Flop. Looked rigged TBH...

    Interesting but i would guess Derren Brown hand picked the "pros", prob picked the biggest all in bluffers/luckboxes in wsop he could find. Because then she only had to decide when they put their chips in were they bluffing or not. Plus I think they said they only had 20 BB starting stacks. Which would have made most plays all in. So she only ever had to read body language.

    Do you really think they would have spent time filming Brown coaching her only to have her go out in the 1st hand? 100% a fixed game, and to make seem slightly more realistic she didn't win - but not because she made a mistake of course, she played correctly and got unlucky! As if an experienced player is calling her all in on the flop of A88 with 99. 90 year old doddery old women don't bluff!
