Top-10 Gambling TV commericals

3 December 2007

By Gary Trask

10.) Foxwoods Resort & Casino - Shuffle Master

This ad will most likely remind you of somebody in your weekly poker game.

9.) Hollywood Park - 'Honey, who's Misty?'

There are two ads in this video that point out the fact that some things don't stay in Vegas. Stay tuned for the second one.

8.) Tiger Gaming - 'I'll take that action'

This version had to be toned down before it aired because of its morbid tone, but the end result (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=28eunWdUSFc) was still humorous, nonetheless.

7.) Treasure Island Resort & Casino- Anchorman

Where's Ron Burgundy when you need him?

6.) Absolute Poker - Office Parody

A creative look inside the Absolute Poker offices. Is this really a parody?

5.) Full Tilt Poker - The mind of Phil Ivey

The scary part is this is probably exactly how Mr. Ivey plays the game.

4.) PokerStars – 'Money hasn't changed Chris'

Another one that's probably not too far from the truth.

3.) Party Poker - Blowup Doll

Gotta love the ending when he asks, "You folding?"

2.) Palms Casino Resort - Pig out

George Maloof stars in this hilarious ad for his Bistro Buffet restaurant. Actually he co-stars.

1.) Doyle's Room - Nice Pair

Any time you can get Doyle Brunson and Pamela Anderson in the same 30 seconds of video, "it's a beautiful thing."
