I was laughing SO hard the first time I watched this. I thought I was going to pass out or something. :D

Re-watching this because of Jonathan's autograph

I really hope they got the reaction on a mailbag video

Yeah, that would be great!

What the hell was Joe Piscopo thinking the third hand? He had no pairs showing with 1 card in the hole while the girl was showing a pair of kings. There was literately no possible way he could have won, yet he kept raising. Very poor poker AI.

Maybe their way of "bluffing"?

Edit: Having watched this for the hundredth time, I have to say both that A) Frakes' thing seems to have been being possessed by the devil... and B) Fairchild is actually AS freaky during Frakes' face because all she's doing is staring DIRECTLY at the player. Yeah, it was a well-timed bit on her loop, but having JUST this time noticed it, it was REALLY weird.

Every time I watch that I laugh so hard I can't even breathe. Between Vinnie's laughing and "I don't want to be here any more" and Jeff's "I gotta' go!" I am on the floor in tears.

My stomach hurts from laughing so hard.

Joe Piscopo's seizures are... oh that's a 3 Stooges impression. "In apropos of nothing," as Ryan would say.

I don't think I've ever laughed as hard during a quick-look then when low-quality Frakes tries to eat me. Vinny's reaction brought me to tears.

@rutger_strahd:

It's the "turn the video quality back up, TURN THE VIDEO QUALITY BACK UP" that still gets me every time. Also great is the muffled FUCK YOU GUYS followed by the sound of his mic being violently torn off and thrown on the ground.
