Message: [QUOTE="dmorris68, post: 2204421, member: 40397"] Yeah they lost the flavor of the show when they booted AJ. Love Gabe, but he needs his straight man for his schtick to work. The chemistry between them helped make the show, and it just wasn't the same with Gabe on his own. And I like Norm McDonald too, just not as a poker commentator. But what ultimately killed the show and others like it was Black Friday. PokerStars and FullTilt sponsored most of these shows and backed many of the players, and after BF they couldn't be seen promoting themselves in a US market (FTP's solvency issues aside, as they'd have likely imploded without BF anyway).
