It's a new "reality" show about four young high-stakes online poker pros who are living together in a house in Vegas with the goal of winning 2 million dollars in 2 months. There's a long article about it in the latest issue of bluff, and it sounds like it might be worth watching.

Premieres this Sunday on G4TV.

I saw ads for it the other day. I'll have to set my DVR and see if it's any good. Thanks for the reminder because I would have forgot.

I got the DVR all set to go. I'm hoping they actually show a lot of the poker, instead of focusing on 4 twenty-something kids living in vegas.

We'll see, but I doubt it.

Yeah, the article mentioned that there'd be a lot of stuff about their "lifestyle" in the show. I'm hoping for a good bit of poker as well, though.

Nope, it's on the tee-vee. My DVR is set as well.

I saw a couple of previews on-line. They look like four regular hangover type of guys that party it up in Vegas. The first episode has 4 playboy centerfold models visiting them at the rental house.

One thing that was interesting is I saw a flash of their on-line playing "room". Several large flat-panel displays, and it looked like they were all multi-tabling at one time... hmmm... collusion possibilities?

from krantz videos about the series on DC theres a healthy mix i think
they have this war room where they all play and i guess they show some of the stuff they do plus the discussions they have with each other ?

but it seems also a lot of 'lets all smash water melons with baseball bats cus we're tilted' which is unfortunate

The Bluff article said they were worried about enough action at the stakes they needed to play since there were only so many 6 max tables at that level and they couldn't play at the same table.

So the goal is $2M in 2 months online only? They gotta show some live poker - and not the four of them sitting around the kitchen table.

they are playing live poker since its around the time of the wsop and there are lots of juicy cash games

and one of them hit a hudge score in a wsop tournament like the day before their challenge started :D

It seems like they are mostly playing online from the trailers, which is retarded. Who came up with the idea for the guys to go to Vegas to play online while there is lots of action in live games?!?

Since its Vegas the show should have some good prop bets like who can get the most STDs from escorts in 24 hours :D

When I first saw the trailer, I thought, oh geez they put high school kids in this - but their bio's all put them in their early 20's, so they are cool to go roam the town and play live. They already have a whale herder for them to go clubbing and play in town.

The war room:

I dont think theyll show much poker considernig theyd have to put cameras on the tables which means all their games will be pre meditated (which is unheard of in reality television)
