| http://www.playwinningpoker.com/poker-news/ "The first season of the program is over, and season two won't begin until March 3. As indicated in the recent "Ladies' Night" episode, women really do play differently from men -- they're chatty, they tease and brag at hands, and even the best of them can be sore losers. Another thing -- they're painfully ruthless. Among the players are Portland's poker champ Annie Duke, who's such a great player she supports her family on the sport. "Ladies' Night's" draw isn't as much in the game itself as the inane commentary by Mike Sexton and Vince Van Patten, men who make John Madden at his babbling peak sound like the Great Orator. And occasionally, the banter oozes with condescension. "This is not Sex and the City!" Van Patten booms. "No one is talking about needs here!" Or, "Mike, I can just feel the estrogen in the room -- and I like it!" Groan-inducing as that was, Van Patten and Sexton do their job of filling those silences with good old dramatic play-by-play far better than Celebrity Poker Showdown's Kevin Pollak. Had you tuned into one of the first two episodes of Celebrity Poker Showdown, you might have been bored out of your skull. Ben Affleck, Emily Proctor, Martin Sheen and Allison Janney couldn't maintain their game faces to save their lives. Then again, Celebrity Poker is not a serious game, and it at least treats you to a few unguarded moments so rare in our era of celebrity handling. That alone may make it worth a look" | ||
