Celebrity Poker Showdown
Jul. 9th, 2004 10:42 amSeason 3 opener spoilers ahead:
Wow. Jerry O'Connell is a moron and a spaz. Who knew?
Actually, I thought he might do okay until he made the worst all-in since Adam Rodriguez. He deserved to be the first to go. Did anyone notice that he was in the same seat position as Rosario, Dulé, Rodriguez, and Sean Astin? I think there's a Moron Chair.
Willie didn't have the luck he had last time, but he had some nice cracks (I loved the tattoo with Dave Navarro's wife's name). It would've been nice if they'd edited things so that the jokes he used in interviews and during the game didn't get repeated.
(Speaking of editing, do you think they could have edited at least some of the references to the newly-defunct Jane's Addiction? Sheesh.)
Jennie Garth was surprisingly fun to watch (I mean, she's always fun to look at, but the last time I saw her giving interviews, in her 90210 days, she was annoying as anything). She made some savvy plays, but got way overconfident. That said, once she hit the short stack, she was solid.
Navarro and Kind both really impressed me. Both had great personalities for the game, and both played solid poker (although Dave should have knocked Jennie out on that one bluff, a mistake he rectified later).
Overall, a good start to the season.
