It’s done n attempt to grow the game, see back in the day sometimes you would be tune into a TV station watching one show and that show would end but you wouldn’t turn the TV off or change the station. So people that end up waking up to this on the TV now know the rules and if they get interested they become recreational players and that’s how you bring $ into the world of poker circles.

Not quite. They are paid an appearance fee of around $5000-$10000. However, they were paid by Fult Tilt $100k a month as long as they were in X amount of shows per year. So anything won or loss is their money.
The Gus Hansen QQ hand explains why Gus is Broke right now. Took 24hrs to make a bad decision, yet he lost millions on line where decisions need to be made in 60 seconds or less. Absolute horrible call.

Lol I can’t figure out why they give the rules and card ranks in every episode. Who would be watching this if they didn’t know how to play poker?😂
Exactly, but don’t forget the presenter who knows fk all about poker too. Adds a great touch to the programme.
It's an advert for FTP at a time when the game was growing fast, so that's why.

Minute 17:20- errrr was that mike reaching into a pill bottle?
Yep
Yeah, Mike was hooked on pills and coke during this time. It was the beginning of his eventual crash.
Yes! It looked like it was at least proscribed to him, i haven't seen the video yet but it's probably painkillers or benzodiazepine.

Who else is rooting AGAINST Howard & Jesus?
