A poker quick look with 3 bombers?  Is that really necessary?

Is it necessary to call them "bombers?" Is this like the "gamespotters" thing continued with a spiritual successor? I don't ever recall the dudes calling anyone bombers.

Generally, this is what we call a 3 man quick look. What would you call it if it was, for instance, Jeff, Ryan and Alex? "Two bombers and a non-bomber"? "Two bombers and a screener"? No, it's three dudes. It's a three man thing.

This looks really good. That being said, I can play almost the same thing on Facebook for free so I'll pass.

Brad should just play Poker Night at the Inventory.  Half the price and more entertaining. 
 
Also, does the Jen avatar shown in the game they played not look like the fake announcer girl from 1 vs.100? From game show hostess to professional poker player I guess.

It's too bad they couldn't have lined up Poker Night at The Inventory for XBLA instead of this.

Jeff sounds super bummed or tired. But ryan is so hype.  I smell something fishy.

Doesn't look too bad for a XBLA poker game that does more with avatars & other things, too bad that the xp doesn't seem to do a whole lot in the game.

Maybe it's just the video but for some reason I am finding the sounds to be awful. Everything from the click when navigating the menu to the card shuffle noise is just annoying me.

I'd rather play Test Drive's poker, which is actually pretty good.

Seems neat, and for those of you who do have a WM7 Phone, this has cool Xbox Live integration but...yeah, it's poker. If it's not straight up World Series of Poker, I probably wouldn't pay all that much for it.  
 
$10 seems reasonable though. Even if I won't be able to play with my friends (since none of my friends ever buy XBLA games, cuz they're dummies).
