Title: Octogenarians involved in secret WPT advertising scheme ? ? Post by: Bainn on April 27, 2006, 01:09:37 AM Greetings, so there i was watching the painful "showbiz poker" with my girlfriend when the adverts kicked-in and something about the advert for the "McCarthy & Stone" retirement apartments caught my eye.
Right near the beginning, just after the badly dubbed couple extol the virtues of "her new life and new friends" it cuts to a shot of some 80-somethings playing cards. What caught my attention was the fact the cards they were using are infact the blue backed World Poker Tour cards. Now, was this because the WPT is finding ever more inventful and subliminal ways of marketing it's product or simply that a member of the production crew was sent down to the local Asda to get a pack of cards and happened upon some WPT branded ones? Is this a conspiracy theory to rival the faked moon landing or simply amusing and happy coincidence?? Title: Re: Octogenarians involved in secret WPT advertising scheme ? ?
