| Definitely the wrong move if it happens. Gabe and AJ work really well together, why would you screw with that for some random chick? |

| When I first heard these rumors, their reasoning was they were trying to attract more women to their network... I'm wondering who besides women are watching GSN any time besides Monday night. They've got their women audience locked up. Except maybe when Card Sharks is on... that's the bomb, baby! |

if it's a girl who actually knows something about poker (in before "no girl knows anything about poker") it could wind up being ok
I'm more glad that there is another season than disappointed that AJ is gone |

Yup. Let's look at the big picture. Gabe is arguably the most insightful poker commentator out there right now. But even if it were him getting the ax, this would still be the best poker show on tv. AJ Benza? meh... aside from great chemistry with Gabe to keep the show moving, what does he really bring to the show? Not that much, imo... |

Vanessa Rousso, imo. Although I really don't know much about the poker skill of either of them. |

| Ugh, someone please explain the Rousso love. I do not understand. She's not that hot, her attitude sucks, and she is/was dating a 'roided up freak. Where's the appeal? |

The wording on his blog made it sound like it wasn't a done deal yet to me, but maybe I'm just retarded.
And Shannon Elizabeth > Vanessa Rousso. |

What's an example of her sucky attitude? The interviews I've heard her give, and her appearances I've seen of her on tv make her seem like a pretty cool chick. I'll agree that she's not hot, but she is pretty. I saw her on that PokerStars Million dollar challenge yesterday and she has really big features... like really big eyes for the size of her face. She looks kind of like a caricature of herself. But they are cute features. I don't think she can generlaly be categorized as ugly, that's for sure. As for the roided up freak, she married him...
She must have done something to piss off some people around here, because there is just as much Rousso dislike as there is love... I don't get it. |
