Poker After Dark gets “romantic” with get dumped theme

Poker pro Marco Traniello will be appearing with significant other Jennifer Harman on this week’s episodes of Poker After Dark.

NBC’s hit late-night poker show, Poker After Dark, always has a theme for a week of episodes and, obviously, this week is no different.

However, with this week’s match-ups it looks like PAD is aiming for a “dump” or “get dumped” theme.

For the next five nights, or mornings depending how you look at it, three of poker’s power couples will sit down at the felt and play for the winner-take-all $120,000 prize: Jennifer Harman and Marco Traniello, David Benyamine and Erica Schoenberg and Phil Laak and Jennifer Tilly.

Now, we’re not so sure how the dynamics of a poker relationship work, but at our houses if you bust your significant other out of a possible $120,000 payday, look for somewhere else to sleep.

This would leave us with two options, dump the crap out of those chips so that you, yourself, don’t get dumped.

We’re sure that they are all consummate poker professionals who will not take any grudges away from the table but whatever, $120k is $120k.

Catch all the action Monday through Friday at 2:05 a.m. EST, followed by a special “Director’s Cut” edition on Saturday at 1 a.m. EST, following Saturday Night Live.

Cahokia man loses at Casino Queen, grabs chips and runs

EAST ST. LOUIS –
After playing a last hand at a blackjack table Sunday at the Casino Queen, a 27-year-old Cahokia man grabbed some poker chips and tried to run, police said.

He didn’t get far. Alert security personnel nabbed him before he could get off the boat.

William McGhee, of 403 E. Fifth St., was held overnight at the East St. Louis jail and charged Monday with theft over $300. His bail is set at $40,000, and he is expected to be transferred today to the St. Clair County Jail.

Police responded to the Casino Queen, located at 200 S. Front St. at 10:12 a.m. Sunday to investigate the theft, Detective Michael Floore said. Police learned McGhee had played his last hand for $25.

“He walked away from the table, then he turned around, went back to it and grabbed 20 purple chips valued at $500 and one white one valued at $5,” Floore said.

The World Poker Association is holding its first-ever conference on May 28 in Law Vegas, just before the start of this year’s World Series of Poker.
