Monte Carlo Millions on FSN

Airing now (and many times during the week) starts airing the Monte Carlo Millions from last year. I recall people over in Europe were able to see this earlier this year, and finally it'll be on in the US.

Hmm, did they borrow the producers from the ESPN shows?

They are formatted, put together and overall 'feel' like an ESPN produced show. From the graphics, the camera angles, and those 'human interest' pieces.

The color commentary guy is very dull though. He's no Norm Chad.

You forgot to include the "Hold or Fold" segments (although no Jesus in a fridge).

adam schoenfield is good.

yes, the production is obv the same. look at the way they handle the 'how to play' segments.

Just saw the first episode tonight. It's decently produced, and maybe the one angle it has that other TV events don't is that you're seeing a more modest-sized major tournament from the beginning. That's something that the WSOP final tables, the Main Event circus, and WPT final tables don't offer.

is this the same tournament that had the hendon mob playing against team full tilt?

Why is Randy Jenson followed by cameras so much? I don't get it.
