    I've realized two things about Sully.
    1. He is a master negotiator.
    2. He is essentially Fancy Joey Tribbiani from Friends in both hilarity and popularity.

    Laurie paying people to not talk or deal with Adam was such a teenager thing to do, but it was also the best thing I've seen on BGC! Laurie, is this how you negotiate in real life as well?

    Both Sully and Brooke using the phrase "stone-cold bitch" to describe Brooke's concentration voice (even witch Sully making the little "that's what she tells me" joke is really funny. You can kinda tell they had that or a similar conversation before. "I'm not mad at you I was just thinking and it makes me sound really mean" lmao. Which is kinda relatable.

  • @jackryan8736

    To be honest, I absolutely loved this: I was laughing so much at this, and especially at the little feud between Adam and Laurie that ended up coming back to bite Laurie in the backside. Honestly? Even though I have never - to my knowledge at least - played a negotiation game before, especially not Chinatown...this game really makes me want to play it.

      @Largo833 2 года назад +31

      Fun fact- Adam and Laurie's feud actually ended up hurting Adam more than Laurie. If Adam had been willing to make peace when Laurie made his offer, he would have gained 150K from the deal, and wouldn't have paid 120K to Sully just to screw over Laurie. That would have changed his final total to 1.05 million, giving him the win as long as ending the feud didn't significantly change the remaining deals of the game. Not that I'm complaining, mind you- Adam refusing the offer was hilarious, and I fully approve of choosing the bit over the win :D.

    I am absolutely loving the series. Have you ever considered doing something like a Board Game Club mini episode or maybe Board Game Club v.s. Where you only have 2 people playing smaller 1v1 games. There are so many great games ideal for 2 players and I think it’d be really cool to show those off (namely Unmatched as it’s on Adams top 10 list). To make it a long episode perhaps you could play multiple smaller games or maybe even get 8 people in and play tournament style? Regardless, love the show and can’t wait to see which games from future episodes I’ll be adding to my collection

    Humble continuity suggestion - rotate the ceiling mounted "board view" camera 180°. It's can be disorienting to watch the game from the opposite side of the table to Adam & John, but then when we see the birds eye view of the board, it is shown from Adam and John's perspective (which to the viewer is upside down)

    • @manylandsofnod
      @manylandsofnod 2 года назад +2
