The product placement has been pretty blatant.

Massive product placement. CarMax pays for the cars, etc. Reality TV is more scripted than real.

I fell of the couch laughing when they arrived in Vegas and Rob says "Since we were in Vegas I ordered a Limo" and every shot shows a limo with the Planet Hollywood logo on the side.

If you haven't seen this yet, there appears to be a marathon of it tonight at 10pm. I just got hipped to this yesterday by my brother who said "You've got to see this show. It's so f-cking bad."
I'm wondering who likes to be on tv more -- Rob and Amber or Daniel?

Just caught this tonight. Wow, it's bad. Maybe a step above cable-access. And why the hell is Negreanu spending his time watching this tool play 1-2 at the Red Rock?

Never saw the big deal about Amber either. Nice rack but otherwise just ok. And zero personality.

I actually liked it, except for the Rob and Amber acting parts, which are obviously faked. Its not a bad show though, especially if theres now poker on tv. I think he plays $5/$10, at least the shows I have seen, he always buys in for $1000.

You are right he probably is playing 5/10 or at least 2/5... but it's still terrible because it's so fake. Like Amber's fake shock at Rob's idea of moving to Vegas (yeah like this wasn't already pre-planned when they pitched the dumb show in the first place?) Or Negreanu's fake shock when Rob told him he wanted to be a pro (Negreanu: "Wow!"). The rampant product placement etc., it' all so cheezy.

BTW has anyone been to the Red Rock casino? Never been there but it looked real nice on the show. (So there's some good product placement for them I guess.)
