TheZwan 0 Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 Watched PAD last night, the first night of poker broadcasters week, and they were raggin on Daniel, saying that he just calls out every hand and then the producers cut it to look like he's always right. First of all, do they expect him to call EVERY hand right? No one can do that. Second of all, the most vocal of the players on this subject was Micheal Konik, has this guy done ANYTHING in poker? And I'm not saying this becuase of what he said last night, but I always found him to be the most annoying commentator of poker on TV. Link to post Share on other sites

It was a joke implying that that is all he has done in poker, I guess it was over your head... Link to post Share on other sites

Omaha Hi/Lo 0 Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 Anyway...I would have liked to see this lineup:Seat 1. Gabe KaplanSeat 2. Mike SextonSeat 3. Norman ChadSeat 4. Howard LedererSeat 5. Vince Van PattenSeat 6. Phil Hellmuth (Since he has taken Gordon's place on Celebrity Poker)PH would be torn to shreads by that cast, not that I don't like Phil, I just think it would be fun to watch joke after joke after joke about his antics and table talk from the people who comment on it.Michael Konik... that's kinda scrapping the barrell.andPhil Gordon... isn't really a commentator anymore.

KidPokurr 0 Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 Phil Gordon... isn't really a commentator anymore.Pro-am poker equalizer and the WSOP live broadcast this year dont count?I do think he is kind of condescending though. never a Phil G. fan. Link to post Share on other sites
Omaha Hi/Lo 0 Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 Pro-am poker equalizer and the WSOP live broadcast this year dont count?I do think he is kind of condescending though. never a Phil G. fan.I almost didn't post that part because I remebered the Pro-Am, but then again... wasn't that like a 5 edisode kind of thing. I think they air the Championship sometime this month. It didn't do very well because it was a total novelty to begin with... I watched like 2 episodes, (1) b/c I was told Mike Matusow's horrid unlucky streak continued on this show. (2) b/c I heard Ivey and Lindgren got heads up and I expected atleast 5 hands of heads up play... it was like 2 (the usual ESPN heads up coveregae) Link to post Share on other sites

James D 0 Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 Michael Konik's books are not, as far as I know, focused primarily on poker. However, he is an EXTREMELY successful author on gambling in a more general light, and other topics also.To dismiss him as an author is ridiculous. Link to post Share on other sites
