Re: I just saw the ad for \"Tilt\" on ESPN.
There have been TILT ads for a while. Is this a new one? Do they actually show any of the characters?

I'm mainly expecting it to suck but am open to the possibility of being pleasantly surprised, mostly because I think "Playmakers" was really good.

playmakers was ridiculous
player shoots someone
player does drugs at halftime coach gets cancer player gets someone pregnant in about 3 episodes can only imagine what tilt will be like maybe poker players will form an association to protest how it negatively portrays them and get the show banned, ha |

Yes, it was a full length trailer, so to speak. It looks horribly over dramatized. Mostlikey, good for the game but quite silly. Michael Madsen is the lead character. I think they called him 'The Matador'. Peace, Joe Tall |

Re: I just saw the ad for \"Tilt\" on ESPN.
I suspect this means we will be seeing the Tilt-trailers/ad's non-stop for the next 3-4 weeks (until it debuts).
They aren't showing the ads for '3' anymore because they finally showed that movie....so Tilt is the next show they are going to hit hard. I too suspect that it will be pretty ridiculous. ESPN did Playmakers....but I thought Tilt was by some of the guys that did Rounders (which I actually enjoyed quite a bit....although I haven't seen it since having learned how to actually play). Maybe some of the Playmakers guys are in on the Tilt thing too. I guarantee that it will NOT be about a bunch of grinders and WILL feature guys staking each other and then stabbing each other in the back....busting-out....doing Coke between sessions...playing for 40 hours straight....etc etc. I picture it to be more like the TV version of Jesse May's book 'Shut Up and Deal'. I also am willing to be pleasantly surprised if it's half-way decent though. |

This is going to be a pain in the neck. It's already cumbersome to explain to people that poker isn't decadence in it's worst form. This may bring new players into the game but the price will be new and stronger sterotypes.

I'll be honest, I can't wait to see this. Looks awesome.
