There is so much Poker After Dark and I haven't watched an episode for ages.

Anyone go to the trouble of watching the show, wherever they can find it?

Yeah kind of just ends on this hand where the blinds are stolen, lol. Wasn't giving it my full attention but Huck Seed played almost every hand wrong, looked totally outclassed.
 
the show is terrible

they managed to get one of the most watchable line ups for TV poker but made it unbearable

the SnG format is bad in itself, the show would be 100x better if they played cash games and filled the room with prop bet material

Instead they make this terrible winner take all challange that plays 4 handed for majority of the show where its raise fold raise fold raise call/check fold its terrible

Ali Nejad needs some help in the booth as well, a partner in crime would help

PAD is what it is. It doesn't try and be fancy with witty commentary and banter like HSP or only show big hands like WSOP. Ali doesn't have interesting commentary or deep insight, he pretty much just calls the action. Yes, they show a lot of hands that aren't interesting but it's to get a sense of table dynamics and what actually happens in a high level SNG. Rather than just showing an AK vs QQ where everyone gets up and starts yelling at their cards to come.
 
Don't want to see any posts from this week, I've just finally downloaded episodes 4 and 5, so I've just started watching ep 1.

durrrr probably has no chance here. I'll go with Juanda with Ivey placing.

Just finished watching the lot. LOL @ last hand.

Guess I got 1 prediction right, 1 not so right.

Next episodes start Feb 7, two weeks of 150k cash game.

Only 2 SnGs left for the season. It used to be all SnGs.
