Awesome thanks for the update. Can't fuckin wait. I only wish they ran this game more often, and for longer.

Like baseball season longer.

Yeah! I can't wait for Joe to steal it and make it available to me for viewing!

This rox. I love that season 4 is about to broadcast, only a few months after season 3 ended :)

Marshall said...

Oh and speaking of stealing stuff. I have a lot of great poker stuff if anyone wants any, I love to share.

I have the Live ESPN PPV of the Main Event for this year, I have a bunch of Live At The Bike's which are cool. I have all of the previously televised WSOP events from this year. I also have the ME broadcasts from 1978-on. I have the new Simpsons Movie in DVD quality (not a video of the screen at the theater).

And of course I have endless hours of p0rn, but that could be awkward if you asked me for it...ahhaha.

If anybody wants anything mentioned or has a request, I am more than happy (I acutally enjoy this shit) to get it for you and bring you a copy to WNP.

I am seriously wondering why there is not yet an all poker channel. The hardcores will watch unedited table play with no hole cams or commentary. They could certainly fill up tons of hours with just that alone.

I've got all the HSP episodes and a ton of 'Cash Poker' (the next best thing to HSP) on my work computer, feel free to bring in a USB drive and do some trading!

And if you aren't in the know, thepokerbay.org is the resource for poker vids.

^^^^

pokerbay.org mega whore.

Ya I forgot I also have all the HSP from all of the seasons. No requests?

Joe- I dont have any "cash poker", I might have to get a sampler from you. I thought LATB was the next best thing..

jsola said...

I haven't seen any of the live at the bike vids, are they any good?

Cash Poker is basically a poor man's HSP. Total low-budget production tech (I think they just put hole-card cams in Binion's high stakes table and called it a day), lower stakes than HSP, and fewer big names, but it's still some great cash game action.

Marshall said...

That is basically what LATB is, except its at The Bicycle Casino in LA instead of Binions. The commentary is done by Bart Hanson, and he's really good. There are regulars in the game and its pretty entertaining. They show every hand.

Each episode is broadcast on the net, and they are 3 hours long. I find it best to have it on in the background while surfing(working), as opposed to sitting on the couch and watching it.

There are a few AWESOME episodes though, tons of action and crazy players.

Oh and by the way, I think "clicky clicky" is the best link text...EVER!
