Re: Tonight\'s Las Vegas - Howard Lederer, Cheating in Poker
Fair enough.
And I misunderstood the report...having not seen the episode personally...I thought Lederer was the cheat. Nevermind the rantings of a crazed coffee junkie then. |

In season 1, there is a poker episode that features Mike heavily and he is not portrayed as a losing player at all - he seems to be quite good.

I'm amazed that Howard Lederer guest starred in an episode about someone being able to cheat a WPT-like event. It seems like a show like this would perpetuate a negative view of poker. [/ QUOTE ] Other than the cheater aspect I thought it was quite interesting about how they tried to portray WPT like events in that: They kept putting it out the the hotel put up the prize money vs a player entry fee and... The impression that the commentary is live |
