Vince Van Patten Should Die

[xDiamond_CutteRx]

Seriously, the topic says it all. I heard him compare this dumb puke of a kid in Aruba to Stu Ungar. In the Poker world, that ought to be punishable by death.

Did he have a "word of the day" tonight? I missed the broadcast.

[TxShadow]

Wow, I'm catching it on the encore presentation and I just saw the Stu reference.

I VVP.

I think he was drunk, he said a ton of stuff that was clearly wrong. Guy flops 2nd pair (KJ4 -he has Jx) well you cant blame him for calling w/ top pair. WHAT?????

According to "One of a kind" Mike Sexton was quite close to Stuey in his latter days so i'm surprised he didn't punch him out right there and then.

VVP = A Hollywood Homo

[Soup_dog]

Yeah, I remeber that reference. I tell ya though, that hand where the two guys each had 73o was unreal. They both were playing it like they had pocket rockets. And the guy who finally hits the flush folds it to the push!

Not related to VVP or anything, but I swear that when I was in Vegas that I played against that Josh guy that was on last nights broadcast. He looked just like the guy, his voice, mannerisms, and body language were spot on as well. They both also had the same playing style.

I only remember him because when I sat down next to him at the table he had over $1300 in front of him. This was $1/2NL, mind you, and by the time I left 3 hours later, he was down to about $150.

Of course, I might be crazy...

Has anyone caught any of the old WSOP broadcasts? Vince's old man is either senile or a complete f***tard.

[tutubird]

Yeah I remember the 7 3 hand, that was amazing. That kid is ok, but I really hate the call with 33 at the 2nd last hand.

[Dave B]

I dont think I make that call against the average Joe. But if I was playing a top pro and had a chance to win it there, even risking facing an overpair, I think I take it.

I don't think any of this should require a public execution.

Was watching the WPT Aruba broadcast (had to tape it) and caught an error in the commentary, I think. One person had A-K suited and another had A-7 suited. A7 goes all in (I think--really doesn't matter). Flop comes J-J-7 but giving A-K player the nut flush draw.

Sexton and van Patten repeatedly said that A-K needed a diamond or a K to win, but wouldn't an Ace also have counterfeited the 77 and made the king kicker good? I caught this because they are usually really good at identifying all of the outs in a hand including the outs to tie. Did two ther players fold Aces that I just didn't notice???

A-K went on to make his flush on the river.

I agree, I think the kid realized he was outclassed and had been on a nice little run. He saw an opportunity to possibly win it right there and took it.

I think he knew that the longer he played HU with Deeb, the worse his chances of winning were.

[MasterShake]

I noticed a part where there was a raise of $120,000, but the pot total in the corner of the screen jumped from $160,000 or so to over $300,000.

Ok, who are you and what did you do with the real Sean_in_NJ?
