I found it offensive. I don't think they should be focusing on irresponsible gambling. I don't see how highlighting problem gambling, on a show watched by gamblers, does any good.

You got it exactly right. If tou want to sell Kotex advertise on shows watched exclusively by men.

I think commercials like this one make poker seem less like a skill game. That will bring more fish into the game, but poker players will lose respect from some people.
