    Last night’s episode of the tv series “Lost” featured a no-limit hold ‘em showdown between Jack, the castaway’s doctor and de facto leader, and Sawyer, the white trash conman of the bunch who hordes any supplies he can get his hands on for trade.

    The issues are numerous. Perhaps the biggest and most obvious is backers playing in the same events as players they have staked, and maybe even at the same table, could lead to suspicions of soft playing and collusion.
    “I would take a lie-detector test,’’ says Lindgren, who plays in many of […]

    Caught this on the TiVo and watched it yesterday: E! Hollywood Hold ‘Em
    This ain’t your average star-studded poker show, people, so pay attention. In E! Hollywood Hold ‘Em, one of Hollywood’s finest opens his or her home to two celebrity friends, two not-so-famous buddies–and you! They’re playing for $10,000 in real cash, and they don’t […]

    Tilt a “disgrace” and Shaq in the WSOP

    Just a couple quick tidbits:

    ESPN’s “Tilt” seems to be garnering a response much like its predecessor, “Playmakers”, which got the NFL’s a whole lotta people’s panties all in a bunch.
    Poker Updates, a monthly online streaming television program covering events and issues current to the world of poker, broadcast a segment which showed professional poker players’ […]
