Re: Bad Commercial: Full Tilt one with Jesus

Not if they think that there are not a lot of "new" players out there and are focusing on making redeposit previous player who went broke. Then this ad would be good as it shows that good players also take bad beats.

Good point Seb86. I guess this could appeal to the 'went bust' demographic. I just think that Full Tilt needs to promote a more fun image for fish/gamblers. I really enjoyed the entertainment value of the Cunningham/Matusow commercial.
Its just that some of these commercial empahsizing strategy like the Hansen-multipersonalities, or Ivey-million thoughts in a second, commercials appeal to people who already understand the game, and are already playing. People who are good, winning players don't need to be advertised to. Those players will be around.
Poker needs that constant influx of fish, cause if there are no fish, and everyone is getting better, than all we have is good/great players losing to the rake. That is all hypothetical and theory of course, but I'm just saying, lack of newbies hurts the game.
