His roaming eye's kept freaking Gabe Kaplan out....it took away from the stellar commentating. So they didn't invite him back.

I always heard that he doesn't like High Stakes because he doesn't like the idea of people seeing his hole cards, and learning his 'game'.
you serious?

he's been on ftp a lot, making hundreds of thousands daily. i don't think he has any interests that publicity would help, so he probably makes more money doing what he does now.

serious as a heart attack, that's why you don't see a lot of the big game guys there, and if you do, they change their game up considerably.

Elezra, Brunson, Harman, Negreanu, Farha all play in the big game....
Those are the ones that do.. Outside of Farha, they all have commitments to online sites that require them to snatch up TV appearances, too.. You forgot greenstein, too, btw

you forgot chip....and he's never on anything televised lolFarha? He knows how to play other games aside from HE/PLO? O RLY?!
I was thinking of Chip when I made the post in the first place, believe it or not. Add in most everyone involved in SS1&2 that isn't tied into FT and PS.Besides, I heard Chip and his wife, Karina, play lower stakes now to spend more time with their infant children. :club:

You're thinking of Chip Jett. Chip Reese's kids are probably legal age. At least old enough to be at his HORSE win last year.
