It actually does look like him :P

and the crossed arms

I don't follow poker at all. So I am wondering how the chip values/amounts are chosen?

In this video it is pretty weird with people having a chips worth 15 million? They could just use 1.5 million.... or 150,000

No, it increases, throughout the tournament. The gather up chips from the players that lose all their chips, so from so many thousand players, all starting with 20.000 chips, it turns into a lot of chips at the end.

or 150!!!

updated the site faq with a more explicit description on how to embed youtube videos (though i doubt anyone looks there before posting "i dont know how to do it")

the hand is more interesting tbh ;)

yeah it's THAT uninteresting

Wow this is the first time I've seen televised poker and it's the most retarded thing I've ever witnessed.

Reminds me of the "World Series of Dice" skit chappelle did.

not to praise tournaments but, to someone who doesnt play / know much at all about poker it's obv gonna be super boring / confusing.

Well I understand it, I just think it's incredibly dumb.

Plus if I'm honest, I watched quite a bit of it, it was hypnotic... but still incredibly embarrassing.

Plus one of them threw a winning hand away because he didn't realise and I thought about how he's going to claim he did it to psyche his opponent out which would annoy me because obviously he didn't.

I can def. agree on the production company being ridiculous, but I don't get too annoyed with it when i watch it on occasion. Someone should shoot norman chad tho.

I agree, Ivey folding his flush was epic.

fatal1ty has played poker for at least a year afaik, think he's in - you can check it out at www.officialpokerrankings.com he played a fulltilt, noticed once where my friend knocked him out in a tournament.

Fatal1ty in 10 years time.

Don't be jealous just because you never got anywhere with your hobby.

Gaming junky + semantics = Amusing.
