Stealth Beagle 0 Posted September 28, 2006 Author Share Posted September 28, 2006 I think he gave two tells that it might be Jen Harman. First, the bit about definitely being in the top 64. Shortly after that, he made it clear that the rules are more like cash games than tournaments and this also seems like an advantage for a player like her. Just a hunch on my part, but a strong one, that she is his co-captain. Link to post Share on other sites

jooka 0 Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 From the rumors Ive read about top 64 players is a huge stretch including the woman. Evelyn ng in but Kathy Liebert isnt?(id like to be able to say ng has the credentials but compared to liebert all she has is a rack) lol. tits > play in this case. So it sounds more like top 64 marketable people to certain demographics. The show still sounds like it will be fun to watch. Link to post Share on other sites
showstopper24 0 Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 so will each team have a guy and girl captain? Link to post Share on other sites
alf13 0 Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 Yes I am a captain. There will also be women in the league. So it won't exactly be the "top 64 players" in the world as certain slots will be given to women. Nothing against the ladies, but there simply aren't 8 women players that would rank in the top 64 IMO. Uh oh, now ladies will hate me too, lol Having said that, it's likely that my co-captain will actually be a lady. Luckily for me, she is a player that would rank in the top 64 easily. I can assure you of one thing, Ivey and I will not be co-captains. That might be a little unfair to the other teams IMO.Make way guys...I am gonna display my insane reading skills here (over the internet no less).here I go...bold prediction:Daniel ain't gettin any for a few days...(provided that Lori reads this sexist chauvenist statement)Get the lynch mob ready...have at him ladies.BTW...you are right..women suck at poker....for the most part.BTW..can we bet on this? This sounds like a way I can donk away money for cheap action. Link to post Share on other sites
showstopper24 0 Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 harman does not suck at poker and i would bet on ivey's or daniel's team. Link to post Share on other sites
cu in 4years Dan 1 Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 I can't belive you would say such a thing! I can no longer be a fan after a sexist comment like that. Shhhh Don't tell my wife I wrote that, she would kick my azz. You know you met her.you love telling people about the time you met dn dont you? Link to post Share on other sites
Storm Pockets 0 Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 So what happened to the PPT that is shown on TV Wed nights? Why was that not successful and what are the key differences about this that will make this work better?Thanks. Link to post Share on other sites
Ecclesbury 0 Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 Who are the top women in the game? I'm guessing Daniel's co-captain is one of (in my order of skill):1. Jennifer Harman2. Kathy Liebert3. Annie Duke4. Vanessa Rousso5. Evelyn Ng6. Jennifer TillyLinda Johnson?What about Barbara Enright? Does she still play? Link to post Share on other sites

sprewell 0 Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 I just HOPE that the PPL wont be using PPT announcer. What IDIOTS! Please someone can confirm? Link to post Share on other sites
showstopper24 0 Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 This is very different than the PPT. The PPT was a tournament with the top players but this will be a league, not a tourny. Daniel said it is more like a cash game and the play will be much different than the play of the PPT. The strategy will also be different.How does this sound for commentators?

Balloon guy 158 Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 No why would you say that. Dude,DN came up to my chin, maybe, when I met him. What is your wife, like 4'5"?No wonder DN like syou, your wife is the first person he can tower over since his Mother, and his dog.(Notice how I worked in a mention that I also met DN when I was at the WSOP?)

7s7c 0 Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 nice analogy-there are some great women players though.Agreed. I found it funny that with 8 teams and DN mentioning that 8 women wouldn't be in the top 64, I assumed that each team must have one woman rep on it, kind of like when you have those MTV shows where each of the teams doing the physical challenge has a woman on it and if you get the reasonably strong woman on yours, you're in good shape. ie) If you get Harman on your team in this thing, you're in good shape.

CardWarfare 4 Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 Having said that, it's likely that my co-captain will actually be a lady. Luckily for me, she is a player that would rank in the top 64 easily.This is making me think it's gotta be Harman. I'm having a hard time thinking of another woman that would be ranked in the top 64, especially one that DN would rank so high. DN and Harman sounds like a great pick for co-captains. I'm amped as hell for this..I can assure you of one thing, Ivey and I will not be co-captains. That might be a little unfair to the other teams IMO.That would be pretty nasty. Either way, I can't wait for the draft for this. I'm assuming it's going to be a while before we see this on TV, but either way I'm pretty psyched for it. Link to post Share on other sites
mcpickl 0 Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 DNs co-captain he is referencing has to be Jen Harman, no other woman qualifies as easily in the top 64.another woman i don't think was mentioned that would likely be among the 8 included is Liz Lieu.
