Moneymaker Millionaire on TV in Canada?
 

Rumor has it a sports network in Canada aired it this past week. Rumor also has it that it sucked.

Any of our Canadian brethren see it?

Yeah, it was on. Yeah it sucked.

It kind of made the whole table seem like a bunch of retards.
"The Special Olympics of Poker" if you will.

Don't mean to take anything away from you, but it was pretty bad man.

broadcast
 

I heard it was terrible as well. I call 3 bets with just a pair of 3's against Quillan and when I'm agonizing over a river call they say I'm showboating and it's an obvious call(at least this is the story I am told of the broadcast).

So we have the runner-up of the Moneymaker Millionaire and a fellow Jaguars fan in the house. Very nice! :cheers:

Yeah,

It has been on fox sportnets numerous times. It's pretty stale in all honesty, but I was doing a physics lab report and I needed some noise. ha!

To sum it up, it was basically showing all the big showdowns, over and over. If someone was all in, it was shown. I don't even recall any bluffs or any hands that didn't go all the way.

They also had interviews with the players, and Lee Jones talking about how great the almighty pokerstars is and the 800 000 players who played in the tourney.

They also showed highlights of a party or meal or something along those lines. It was very bland to be honest. I'd rather watch an episode of the ultimate poker tour. lol.

Meh. Tough to distill 16 1/2 hours of poker into a one-hour show.

FWIW, if I read the Officialpokerrankings.com stats right, you just won a WSOP ME seat and Quillan hasn't won anything since then. :thumbsup:

Not that he's a bad guy.

Screw all the people who call us retards after they see the show. We got to play for a million bucks, and I got to go drinking with Isabelle Mercier. :D :cool:

Good job, man. You earned it.

thanks kurn. Yeah I just won a WSOP seat and have 6 mtt wins and like 15 FT's since I got back(across multiple sites). So poker has definitly been treating me well.
