Celebs Go All In at the World Poker Tour

Welcome to Younghollywood. com. What's up, Young Hollywood? I'm Chad Cannon here at the 8th annual World Poker Tour Celebrity Invitational.

Celebrities are here at Star Studded. They're losing money, but fortunately, it's going to charity. So what's the game plan? Well, tonight, I'm going to try and scout a hands with professional poker players. I'm going to try and get a lot of hands with the celebrities, and I'm going to keep my ear to the ground because towards the end of the evening, a lot of celebrities start making whiny noises. Like, "Oh, it's late. I I don't want to come back tomorrow. I didn't know it was going to go on this long." And they start like pushing in all the time with substandard hands. So that is one element that you have at the celebrity invitational that you don't have a regular poker tournament.

We notice you were bellied up to the bar. Is that going to affect your game play this evening?

No, it usually doesn't. I usually do fine um on water and ice.

Yeah. I mean, you can't build up that. Right. Dude, I hear you. So what's the what's the game plan?

My game plan is to uh try not to do anything stupid. Like a guards and uh, you know, see how it goes.

Yeah, pretty good player?

the last like four or five years and uh one time I made it deep, and the rest of the times I uh crapped out pretty early.

So, is there anything that really tips you off every time that you're on the table?

Oh, I couldn't tell you that. What what would I be doing if I gave that away right now? No, I mean, you know, you just you like I said, there's just those things, those little things and keep an eye on them.

Do you have any crazy Vegas stories?

Who doesn't have a crazy Vegas story? Um I don't. Mine are always just losing money.

No, no, no, no. You got to go to Vegas, you got to dress up, you got to put a little bow on, put a little something on, you know what I mean?

Yeah, I know exactly what you mean. You know, you look.

What's he telling us? here. This is kind of a Real World reunion. I'm standing here with Rochelle from Real World Vegas. So did Real World Vegas stimulate your love for gambling?

Everyone asked that. We didn't have You know, we didn't have enough money to gamble. No, you definitely don't.

We wanted to know, like, what's the strategy tonight? Big poker tournament.

The strategy is basically try not to shart at the table. I'm kidding, because there you go. Because I play with a lot of professionals, you know, it's it's a little nerve-wracking but it's shart inducing.

Yeah, shart inducing, you know.

So I brought my my diaper here. The secret here is to cheat. I have this thing where I have X-ray vision because I'm black. And we have special powers. So I see everybody's cards and they don't know this. So I and the spades talk to me because they're black. And so do the clubs. But the red cards, they're a little racist, they don't talk to me. That's okay, cuz I talk to the black cards.

Hey. Hey, Rocky, how are you doing out there? I've been watching you for like the last hour.

Yeah, and what'd you notice? Did you see some good skill?

I saw you had to buy back in.

No, I didn't buy back in. Are you kidding? I just rebought, which is for charity, and everybody else did. And I happen to be the chip leader at my table.

Really?

I got there. So, bam.

What's the strategy for going back in there?

You know, it's just balls to the wall. Balls to the wall. Mhm. The way I live my life. You know, it's just it's it's only poker.

How's the gambling game going for you tonight?

Oh, I'm busted out. I am I rebought very early. The only thing, the one thing I could say at the table over and over again was, "All in. All in." That's not a good thing. That big win big. Yeah, well, go big or go home. And tonight, it's going home.
