The programme would be better without that idiot that presents it .   I liked Antonio Esfariandi's house, thats what you get for winning a WPT title. 

I watched 'Million Dollar Cash Game' on sky.  Mike the Mouth "Gus is an idiot. He will be broke soon",  " I am the most unlucky guy. It has always been this way".   Cheesy

Im sorry, but what an absolutely awful programme. Im sure anyone who has never had a bet may be interested, but it is condescending and patronising. bad choice of presenter IMO.

Robbie Box in "Big Deal" was a better advertisement for a gambler.

Poor, poor, poor.

I couldn't disagree more - this is the first programme I've seen for a while about gambling that doesn't have a negative agenda.

The presenter is just gambling and talking to gamblers, I don't think he's trying to "represent" anyone.

if wanted to represent gamblers as buffoons, he did his job well. Dumb programme, lets hope next episodes "poker special" is an improvement, i wont hold my breath.

I watched this tonight and thought it was pretty entertaining. Didn't seem to have the shock 'gambling is evil' style of many other programmes of this type. Though I think maybe episode 3 is dedicated to addictive gambling?

Same Roger Barton the bookmaker that was crying like mad on Saturday night at Romford dogs when i had £1000 @5-2 on a dog that returned 5-4. Won a short head in an A1 and he started telling me I was involved in race fixing and not to bet with him again. Laughable.

No need to wait for a re-run, I will summarise for you.

Sikh gent decides to have a gamble with 7k ...so he has a little punt on the dogs, a little punt on the horses,roulette etc... then he gets into the proper side of gambling and walks into a swimming pool fully clothed (including turban) for a bet, then plays a bloke who had breast implants (for a bet) at table tennis .... not sure how much he had left at the end of the programme because I had long lost the will to live by then.

Apparantly the next show has footage of a Rob Yong home game ... lets hope the narrative does it justice.

Your only jealous because the bloke make $300k out of he's breast implants, surely you can make more Kev because yours are natural.  Grin
