    Well, i presume that it is a new show! Has anyone seen it yet? It's on at about 12:30am every night. Six online qualifiers compete in a live game. The players are p*ss-poor because they aren't used to playing live. The commentators make the tv show, though, with their jibes about the poor play. Would love to qualify to play the show - even a poor live player would run rings around the table.

    I saw it last night and the two last guys looked OK to me, I didn't see the start of it, so I don't know about the general play, one hand I remember that wasn't probably great was when a guy raised around 400 UTG with AQ leaving something like 600 behind then the next guy re-raised him with 55 and your man folded for his last 600, with the pot something like 2000 should have really been an automatic call and that was a bit dodgy possibly but the bit I saw I thought it was OK,

    Your right about the commentators though, I love listening to Jesse May.

    It was good alright, a bit annoying that they werent showing everyones' hand on the deal, but it was good. The guy Spencer deserved to win from being the only one with a pair. The mistakes are great to watch though, cringeworthy sometimes. Typical amateur play though, when someone lost a big pot they'd go in with nothing. One player got lucky with 68o with the chip leader calling with JQo, two 6s and an 8 were enough, got ripped apart on the next hand as far as I can remember.
