EricRamseyPersonally I had to mute estafandari (sp?), I think he just got too carried away tonight, describing, and basically trying to call every single card (which most of the time he missed) but it became so annoying my husband and I had to actually hit the MUTE button. Nothing personal against him, I mean I have watched him grow into poker over the past several years, but his commentating has got to gooo!!
