The primary thrust of the FTP advertsiements is the reinforcement of the idea that anyone can win at poker. This ad shows that some random dude can beat an icon like Jesus because of luck.

I miss the "Bluffed by 7-2" commercial that he was in. That hasn't aired in eons.

I found a great one on Youtube:

I think the end could have been a little better, but funny none the less.

Best FT commercial is the one where all the dudes are banging Ivey's wife and he just sits there and watches it happen.

"Back of the line"

lol

I also think that a lot of Full Tilt ads are also sending a message to the public in general, to make poker seem legitimate. What other thing could be the purpose for ads like "Why we play?" In this particular ad, Full Tilt is stating up front that while luck may be a factor in the short term, skillful players will win in the long term.

What do you think Fergusons' opponent has in the commercial?

I believe the board read:
Q-T-4, 5, 9

Ferguson had to have QQ while the opponent held J8 for four outs on the river.

Thats my guess.
