ESPN's "Tilt" - Your Thoughts?

If you have watched ESPN at all in the last few months you've seen the ads for the new show. What do you think? Will it be at all accurate to poker at all?

It has as much chance of being accurate as people using the search function.

I've seen a bunch of the commercials, and I think it will be great. Great for people that actually know how to play because it will be create so many more fish. People that don't realize it is such a bad poker program, and try to immulate what they see.

It will go right in line of creating fish just like Rounders kind of did, Vince Van Patten on the WPT does, and now TILT. I'm looking forward to it.

I agree. It will be dumb but whatever brings in the fish.

I second that. The show will glamorize poker and bring more fish in. Will have matadors galore [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

I'm going to burn them all in the cash-games by stepping out of the kiddie-pool and starting to make some moves.

I also can't wait to learn how to provoke people into folding their hands without looking at my cards.

I want to be the next best young-talent since the Kid Ungar.
But I hope I don't get sucked-in and have to see if I can climb my way out the other side.

Finally, I believe I will benefit greatly by seeing which situations are considered best for diving head-first across the table to tackle my opponent.

If anyone ever even thinks about bluffing me at the poker table and then showing their hand to make me look foolish after my big laydown then I will jump across the table and kick their ass.

You better believe it.

A.C. is not made to look foolish. [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]

i wish i got dealt KK as much as the matador got them.

The show looks terrible, just another way for someone to try and cash in on the poker craze.

And the "Matador"? How friggin lame is that? Oooh, I'm a Spaniard in little white tights, fear me!

By the way, isn't Juan "Carlos Mortenson" already known as the "Matador" of poker?

I want to be known as the Hamburgler........maybe I'll start my own series! Robble robble! [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
