"stinky" Gordon...pad...prop Bet's Gone Bad


Recommended Posts

So I am watching PAD last night and the always douche-tastic Phil Gordon starts talking to Howard Lederer about running into his mom at the Venetian. Howard shoots him a funny look and say's "That's impossible". This turns into a hilarious conversation in which Gordon is a brazzilion % convinced he saw Howard's mom and had a converstion and everything w/ her. Long story short...It turns out he thinks it was Howard's stepmom instead. Anyway...Howard and Phil make a 1k prop bet that Phil saw EITHER Howards mom or stepmom and Howard will pay the bet off if EITHER of them had a convo w/ Phil at ANY Vegas Casino in last 2-3 days or whatever. Howard THEN opens the bet to ANYONE at table. Ali Nejad "smells a rat" and reluctantly doesn't get in on the bet. Phil then says to Robert Williamson "back the truck up on this one boys" and Williamson also bets Howard 1k taking Phil's side. It should be noted that Howard KNOWS that Phil KNOWS BOTH moms and has met them on SEVERL occasions. Which makes the whole bet hilarious. Phil and Howard both 100% agree that Phil has met both of them before!!! So this is an IMPOSSIBLE BET for Gordon to lose right???????So.....finally at end of show, Howard gets his cell phone and calls his stepmom...he asks her if she was in Vegas and she says NO!!! He then hands phone to Phil who TURNS GHOST WHITE w/ a totally goofy look on his face. Howard starts cracking up as does rest of table. Even after hearing her say she wasn't there (she was in Jersey?) PHIL STILL DOESN'T BELIEVE IT!!! He and Robert both pay Howard the 1k each and Robert is just going nuts. "Back the truck up?????" Robert is also now convinced that Howard and Phil just made the bet to chop his 1k for 500 each and he was the mark. The show ends pretty soon after, but it is OBV that Phil is on "Gordon Tilt" and mutters..."i can't believe i just lost that prop bet..."So...anyone else see this? Comments? Your bad prop bets? use search function? Vick12 stop hitting NEW TOPIC? WSOP2008 HU4ROLLZ?

I saw it as well. I think Robert is 100% positive Phil and Howard set him up. He's even more upset about it than Phil. LOL!!!!!!!!

No...I think Robert WANTS that to be the reason they lost the best. He even said he would give each $600, ($100 more each) if they just admit they ran a scam on him.I mean...how can u make a bet that u SAW SOMEONE that u really didn't? Phil even said she came up to HIM and said "Do u remember me?"Cocaine is a helluva drug!!!!

I doubt it's about the money...it's just pulling one over on someone. Money just makes that an easier task to accomplish.

I'm more shocked that anyone would watch PAD in real time instead of recording it and fast forwarding it through the commercials. This is a good group of conversationalist and Ali helps drive the chatter to sweet stuff like prop bets and NLH vs LHE.

Between working a normal 40 hour week, playing too much poker, and hanging w/ my son, who has time to record???PAD is usually the normal person's Late Night or Tonight Show thing to me. I sometimes play the Turbo Hundo on Tilt at 2:00 am my time. PAD is on at 2:05. So I watch PAD until I busto the Hundo...then pass out with PAD on in background. Last night I watched whole thing to see if they were gonna call her or not.Now I am OBV gonna have to watch tonights to see a solid Gordon steamfest!!!

I couldn't sleep last night, girl friend was at her house ....so I kicked on the tube and this was on. Tivo has about 20 PAD shows in it that I haven't watched yet... Not sure I'll ever get bored enough to go back and watch those.

I haven't enjoyed a PAD that much in a while. It's funny enough watching Phil Gordon try to interact with people at a poker table(funny EVERY time), but watching his confidence swing from one extreme to the other last night was gold. "I would have gone off for 20". Phil "back up the truck" Gordon, gl in the wsop!

The show was hilarious. But the re-telling would have been better if you had Gordon say "That's unpossible"
lol :)btw, I vote for the scam. I don't need $500 either, but I'd totally do this to a buddy just so a year later I could tell him we totally pulled on over on him :)Mark

This is the best/weirdest prop best ever. How can Phil Gordon be ****ing wrong here? The best part is Howard weighed the situation (just like a complex hand of NLHE) and decided that the odds were in his favor that she wasn't @ the Venetian yesterday and got 2 way action because of it.I HIGHLY DOUBT they hustled RW3.

They could absolutely be hustling for the fun of it. Kind of like when you stick your dick in your friends mouth while he is napping and snap a picture. You're not really gay, but it's worth it for a picture of a dick in his mouth. Does that make sense?

No, not at all.
