Trivia

When referring to poker players, the term "Tilt" means a state of emotional confusion sometimes brought on by unexpected or bad losses. This results in the player no longer being able to play well and often chasing their losses.

Goofs

User Reviews

Best show on TV

I have to say I wasn't originally going to watch the show, but my friend came over the day the series premiered so I was forced into it. I'd have to say though it is definitely a must see.

Its the only show during the week I block out time for. I've seen all 9 episodes the day they aired. Way better than the last ESPN drama Playmakers.

It's like a weekly soap opera. It involves way more than just poker. Can't wait until it comes out on DVD. Before season two starts I'd recommend watching the re-runs of episode one and getting the story down before the 2nd season starts. Watch them in order or you'll get lost.
