Yep, you guys cant let these people know you think this show is actually cool. Probably only like 5% of the people here dont like it.

I didn't watch it, but I'd wager that it was [censored] awful.

[/ QUOTE ] I have a feeling that more than 5% of hardcore poker-types won't like it ... but I still enjoyed it immensely, I'm looking forward to the next episode, and I'm fairly certain this will lead to even more growth in the poker boom as Network TV won't be too far behind....

TV shows about doctors, lawyers and cops don’t reflect real life so why should a poker show. Anyway, the show is not really about poker, it’s about the characters, their relationships, conflicts, motivations, etc… Poker is just the backdrop.
Tilt was pretty good because it had some interesting characters and it drew the viewer in with the plot to take down the Matador. I’m going to watch next time because I want to see how they are going to get him. Prediction: the girl will use the chewing gum tell to bust the Matador. If you want to see a good poker show, watch Championship Poker on FSN. Everything else is just entertainment |

You may be on to something. The show is an abomination if you base it purely on the poker, but it was somewhat entertaining.
I think it's like hardcore Led Zeppelin fans and the song "Stairway to Heaven", if you're a hardcore Zep fan, Stairway can't be your favorite song b/c all the newbs love it and it's uncool. |

I thought it was so far fetched it was almost embarrasing to watch. "The Matador" overacted so much it reminded me of that guy that was on NYPD Blue and CSI Miami (David Caruso?)
I think the dumbest part was to have the head of a casino partners with a poker player to cheat people out of money. Then to go as far as to having many other casino employees involved. Having said all that I TiVod it and will probably skim through it next week. |

[/ QUOTE ] This is the type of attitude the original poster was talking about, I didn't watch but all the "cool" posters say it sucks so I am going to be cool and say it sucks to, EVEN THOUGH I HAVEN'T SEEN IT. Geez, why don't you wait and form your opinion and not just jump on the offical 2+2 bandwagon. You play poker so I am guessing you can think for yourself? Is it a good show about poker? Maybe not but does it have some interesting characters and plot lines? Maybe, hard to tell after 1 eprisode but they did start to develop some that might be pretty good so I am going to watch next week and see how they progress. |
