Hip Hop Hold'em

[arpinology 0]

basically a 6 C-D level hip hop musicians, djs, r+B singers, etc play cards. the most famous person i saw was Ruben Studdard.i know its filmed in NYC. in chicago its on sundays at midnight on WCIU(transmission channel 26.) its...just...awful. the first episode I watched in full but I wish I could get that hour back. I described it to my friends as a bunch of 20-somethings acting as stubborn as a 10 year old kid in a toy store.there was one hand...this dude had 3-8 off, and he raises, this girl(some girl assoiated with fat joe or something) re-raised with q-9...and btw position is irrelevant for this show. anyways, the girl kept betting after the flop, river, and turn, and the guy with 3-8 kept calling... and the girl HAD Q HIGH all the way through.there are 2 hosts, one knows how to play and the other guy has no idea. he made fun of this one guy for playing tight and he said "why'd you fold that hand" and the knowledgeable host said "actually, that was a good fold." the hand was like 3-9...or 7-4...something that really wasnt that impressiv.ewatch it if you want to laugh and/or get pissed off.

Caught a little of it. It's probably one of the worst nationally broadcasted poker shows.

This fits in the "Jumped the Shark" world.I actually burst out laughing last night and leaned over to the wife to tell her to watch it. I actually said, "Well, we've jumped the shark."I miss the quality of the old "Celebrity Poker Showdown" shows...sigh...

I watched a couple hands and it seemed like the guys playing thought that they had to bluff and play the hand the whole way through. There was not a lot of folding going on once the flop was out there.

I watched exactly one hand on the show...Guy raised with 75o UTG, guy with something like 84 calls, guy with AA call, another call with K5, and then JJ calls. Flop comes 954 or something like that and the Jacks bets out, original raiser with 75 raises, AA smooth calls, as does JJ. Turn J, set of jacks bets out, both call. River was a K or Q, set of jacks bets out again and only gets called by the aces. When the guy flipped over his AA he didn't understand how he lost.
