|
|
This final table is all about the ratings... Nobody made this table because they are "great poker minds"... they know avid poker players will tune in regardless... this table is to be as entertaining as possible to pull in ratings.
Seat #1: Steve Dannenmann - Now the 4th best player in his home game, and still having fun. This will only be a one-day event so he shouldn't run out of underwear.
Seat #2: Sharham Sheikan - At the opposite end of the table from "The Mouth" so the verbal warfare is as loud and animated as possible
Seat #3: Greg Raymer - Still one of the biggest draws on the market.
Seat #4: Marcel Luske - Since Harry Demetriou didn't make the event he's trying to find another post-game party to crash. Seems to have picked up a new repertoire comprised of Broadway show tunes.
Seat #5 Phil Hellmuth - A half-dozen chairs have been made ready for throwing just behind Phil. The current over/under line for the longest throw is at 9-1/2 feet. All seat positions have been rotated around the table 180 degrees putting the dealer where seat #5 would usually be and Phil is sitting where the dealer usually sits. The TD figured the chip tray at the dealer's position would make it easier for Phil, knowing that he has a problem stacking his chips properly.
Seat #6: Phil "Unibomber" Laak - Still hasn't figured out how many ways there are to skin a cat nor how that would apply to poker. Is thinking about asking Hellmuth how much his wife charges for therapy.
Seat #7: Mike "The Mouth" Matusow - Between the sparring with Sheikan and the ever-impending "Matusow Meltdown" this table could get better ratings than the Daytona 500.
Seat #8: Phil Gordon - 'Cause he knows how to use good camera time
Seat #9: Rachael Huntley - Not here for her poker skills as much as for someone that Phil can flirt with during play. Like "checking her pulse" to see if she's bluffing - Then shoot him down in flames after the cameras stop rolling. _________________ - Dix |

I always thought Alf looked like Ronald Reagan. Was that intentional? _________________ --

I like them both - Ronald Reagan was the schiznits! Alf was just plain funny. He and I have something in common, too. We both like pussies. (Cats people, pussy cats!)
