this is the thread to post all the hilarious/stupid/classic calls made by poker commentators for wpt/wsop/etc

mike sexton: the game that takes a minute to learn but a lifetime to master.
vince van patten or mike: i've got a feeling where going to be in for some real good poker today - we've got some great players at the table. (Every episode)
recycled cliched lines...a PLENTY!

vince : OH i dont believe it...hes gone all in!
mike: i tell you what - I Have never seen this before.
(if guy makes big bluff and gets called)
mike: i dont know why he pushed all in - it was a rash move, he had plenty of chips
(if it works)
mike: well, what a great player by (insert player) - as you can see agressive poker always wins

to the WSOP:
whos that commentator who during last years world series constantly made jokes refferring to his wife - he was hilarious...

oh and can someone help me - what are those catch phrases mike sexton has when someone hits a 1 or 2 or 3 outer or a "miracle card"
is it "lightning in the dark" "fire in the something..."

don't see the point. a link is just as many clicks as embedded file.

one good reason for me anyway is that most of the time youtube doesn't work for me in Firefox (something to do with my software firewall), so i tend to have to watch youtube using IE.

embedded videos work fine though, even in Firefox.

it opens up an annoying new tab aswell, takes longer to load and sometimes doesn't work.

Here is some classic commentary. Who wants to be the first to point out the obvious (or for someone at least, the not so obvious)?

And sorta looks like Isla Fisher on the right. I check her out on IMDB, to find that she was born in Oman!

Can't beat the comment from Phil Gordon at the end of this clip.

Seems like Phil might have a bit of an obsession. Can't say I blame him.
