I wouldn't be surprised at all if Bellande wasn't their first choice, but like their 37th or something and the other 36 poker players they asked actually still have a poker career going and no interest in embarrasing themselves on national tv.

I find it hard to believe that more high profile players wouldn't jump at the chance for a million dollars and be on featured on a top rated show on national TV. They love they limelight and would be great for endorsements.

Other pokker players I think would be great on survivor are Scotty Nguyen, Mike Matusow, Phil Helmuth.
