Yep , sounds good...Would defo watch.
Just heard on the radio that this years big brother is giving 1 place via a golden ticket in kit-kats (willie wonka style)
Maybe one of the poker house mates could join by means of winning an online satellite?
Good Luck !

As a guy who hates with a passion big brother, celebrity jungle guff, celebrity anything(dance , sing, pop idol) and wonders why tv time is given over to c or d list people who have nothing to offer i have to say the opportuntiy to watch decent poker players during a wsop and see their pre and post play habits and catch the insight into how they play and handle the games i would be glued to the screen. it would have to be open , honest and a true reflection of how it affected them...hell there me be some comic genius as well. great idea - make it so!  |

A VERY interesting idea Brian. I'm sure most, if not all, poker players would watch this. Even as Patman says, people who hate "big brother" or reality tv shows would tune in like a shot. Who wouldnt take up an opportunity of being able to see behind the scenes and behind the poker face of players. I reckon if this goes ahead then a diary room type concept should be incorporated. That would be cool (and hilarious if you hog it Brian). Maybe two diary rooms. One where you are ONLY allowed to tell Bad Beats (so people can skip that segment if they wish  ) and one where you can record your thoughts and feelings about anything WSOP related - or to slate other people in the house  |

I quite like the idea (perhaps not for a whole bunch of shows, but a few) of giving an impression of the realistically tiring and sometimes slightly tedious poker players' life - there's nothing like watching people first thing in the morning eating Cheerios out of a box to dispel any romanticised images of any kind of lifestyle.
Also, people's personas 'away from the table' are often very different and, honestly, if people can watch "Luton Airport" they'll definitely be interested in the Poker House.

I think to try and get it aired and sold to as many countries as possible, you would need a range of different nationalities all trying to live together, so hows this for a line up
Pascal Perrault
Marcel Luske
El Blondie
Rookie
Gus Hansen
Negraneu
Ms Mercier
Phil Laak
Carlos Mortensen
Padraig Parkinson
Jesse May
Lazaroonie (for the scottish viewers, obviously)

Nice list, but you'd need more women to help balance things out. |

Great idea.
I'd be really interested to see the highs (of say someone winning an event), the monotony of 6 weeks of poker (it aint all glamourous when you aint playing well/winning) and I'd really like to see how the pros handle the real low points.
12 shows is a lot though!
Do you need a night out organiser/lapdance specialist/mascot?

Does Mrs C know about this idea? I could just imagine the conversation: "Darling, I have had a great idea. While I am in Vegas I will stay in a house full of hot poker chicks and we will film it and show it on the web!" And my wife won't even let me go to Amsterdam! As for the idea I would like to watch. My only concern is that away from the tables won't everyone want to sleep? The few times I turn on Big Brother everyone is asleep and nothing happens. I was also trying to work out the time zone as to when i am likely to watch and when will anythign be happening on the show? |
