They are both so annoying. Just play off each other. Like Seth rogan and Jonas. But, both need a way to make money besides poker and jenifer Tilly.

Phil L. & Antonio are two of my favorite players and I would love to be able to see this. However, I live in the US, don't have cable & pretty much rely on Hulu for my tv viewing. So does anyone know of a SAFE free internet site where I can watch this live (most "free" sites want you to download their player & a java version that isn't even legit, so I really don't feel comfortable doing that), or alternately have any idea if they will post the vids on Discovery channel site after it airs or maybe on YouTube?

This forum is just full of short sighted haters and complainers. No matter what someone thinks of Laak and Antonio, not wanting this show to succeed is like yelling at and hating on a player who refuses to fold air.

yup...

him, Laak and a few others are just TV/attention whores... but the show might be entertaining... TV does need some decent poker shows, especially as the coverage of WPT and other poker games have been sucking so badly in the last few years...

Only saw last 15 mins of it. Did not like. The women said "turn this stupid show off already" several times.

Seems too scripted to be a real life show, even though it's presented as one. Good to see Laak getting money from somewhere besides Jennifer Tilly's wallet though.

I want to believe...

But, it just screamed phoney. The initial game at some "seedy" neighborhood bar was phoned in. Don't believe the yokels would be keen on Phil showing the kings and Antonio walking up on that quick edit.

The largest atrocity was the magical elevator in New Orleans that was going down... they can't even bury their dead because of the sea level alone!!! GG Phil and Antonio. $$$ hollywood
