WSOP Hold\'em or Fold\'em Commercial Question.
On the commercials where there are a bunch of guys sitting at a poker table and then they ask whether the player should "Hold'em or Fold'em," why is Jesus the pro in this commercial when he openly admits he is terrible at reading people? [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Jesus meant he was bad at reading physical tells compared to lots of other pro's his status. That does not mean he can not take a betting pattern and break it apart analytically and come to a decision on whether to "HOLDEM OR FOLDEM".

Re: WSOP Hold\'em or Fold\'em Commercial Question.
These holdem/foldem questions would be hard for any pro to get most of them right.
I am sure Ferguson was picked for his appearance, personality, nickname, and card throwing abilities. It wouldn't be quite the same with Ted Forrest or Dan Harrington in the refrigerator.
