Under the sea, under the sea
Poker is better down where it's wetter
Take it from me.
Up on the shore they work all day
Out in the sun they slave away
While we devoting full time to floating
Under the sea

worst idea ever

I said on the page before that I can't see why anyone would think this entertaining. But quitting poker because of a dumb idea? Getting really pissed off? That doesn't make much sense, just ignore it.

Dude, I'm not actually going to quit poker. That's just not possible.

Think they need some publicity much?

Oh, I imagine there'll be more. Maybe the Discovery Channel will get in on the poker action and hire the crocodile guy to provide expert commentary.

Still, this isn't as dumb as the "Man versus Vegas" show on CMT. I only saw it once, but I severely doubt that getting a card rush in Blackjack and Baccarat to take away all of the dealer's orange chips is supposed to make him the people's champion against big bad Vegas.

What, you actually think this is a good idea? Is this really good for the game? What next, poker fear factor? If you get caught bluffing you have to eat beatles dipped in cow dung? I think my response is no less thought out than the creaters of this spectacle. I would have loved to been at that brainstorming meeting. I would love to know the genius that came up with this. "I have an idea, boys, " he says as he puts down his water bong and shoves the hooker off his lap, "let's get together to has-beens in the poker world, throw some scuba gear on them, and have them play heads up in the ocean."

Is it really good for the game? Don't care really. I'm pretty sure its not bad for the game.

I recently stumbled (see, it was an accident, see...um yeah an accident...) on a web site where topless girls wrestle each other. There's a ref and points are taken. Digitial insertion is apparently an acceptable tactic as is stripping your opponent completely naked. (The wrestling was actually much more competent generally, than one would expect). At the end of the match the winner gets to strap on a dildo and screw the loser.

Whatever else you want to say about that, I'm pretty sure its not going to damage the sport of wrestling.

I'd be more than astonished if the underwater poker game had any negative impact on poker generally.

I do wonder if Caro can offer any hints on underwater tells...
