This guy needs to be escorted from the table and the mic. He is one of the worst commentators I have ever seen and heard. The face of the game is young - the face of the game is Phil Ivey, it is Scott Fischman. It is not Mike Sexton. Alot of people watch the WPT on tv and it sucks that we have to listen to this guy. Vince is bad enough, but tollerable. He needs a funny, young sidekick to interject some thoughtful insight on a game that Mike obviously knows nothing about. He consistantly makes amature mistakes on professional stages, on and off the mic. Im sure he had his run but this guy is washed up. I completely aggree with Maestro up there about what the commentators really need to be talking about, I remember thinking to myself during a telecast the exact same thing. And for god sake's producers, listen up!!!! We know how to play hold 'em!!!!!!!! We know what drawing dead means!!! And if the person watching doesn't know, let them figure it out or ask someone else in the room, or better yet - dont waste your time watching poker on tv if you dont even know what a turn card is. Im tired of it. Same goes for the WSOP on ESPN. If I have to see that guy make his 10's full of Kings one more time im gonna lose my mind. You don't hear basball announcers teaching us how 4 balls means you get to go to first every freakin game!!!! Poker needs a new voice, someone witty and someone who knows the game in and out. Someone like me, thats why im in broadcasting school currently. Maybe someday I can save all of our ears from this guy who is in the wrong profession.
