Celebrities Playing Poker On The TV

[Robbie Robb]

Okay, I agree that some of the play on CPS is weak. But then you have other celebrities that do PLAY the game. There have been a few on CPS such as James Woods (he's the first person to come to mind). Then there are other celebs that play in the tourneys - Affleck, Tilly, Tom Everett Scott, and others - and do fairly well.

I think it's more of a case where "celebs that play poker becaue poker is cool" are bad whereas "poker players who happen to be celebs as well, even if it's their celeb status that gives them the ability to play" are alright.

I mean, I'd be just as afraid of going up against Tilly or Affleck then Ivey or Hellmuth...
