Put a camera on some people and they think they have on screen talent. I love watching Mike play poker, but man, when the game is over they really need to turn the cameras off. I'll take Phil G. or Daniel if I have to watch people talk away from the table. (this show is like 9th grade video announcements)

Now, let me get this straight. Mike feels it is bad etiquette to win and run, and to drive the point home he won and ran against JD. (did I get this right?)

This is like the parent who see's little Johnny shove his friend and then slaps Johnny in the back of the head and yells "WE DON"T HIT PEOPLE!"

There is a relationship between class and etiquette that has been missed here, and I am not really suprised.

I think Mike was referring that after he lost 2k to JD, JD sat out and made Mike reload to 5k. If this is true Mike said its like rubbing it in to your oppenents face. I don't know if this is true or not but this is what I think Mike meant.

I think that would be a different issue. JD stated his reasons for not wanting to play short stacks, and I am sure there is an interesting discussion in there.

My attention zeroed in on the part where Mike goes on about the "win and run" thing(in his show), and then in the hand posted in this thread, he appears to do the same thing.

Being nice to everyone is just so much easier
