American Vice starts in 45 minutes on CNBC

[OAKAS]

“American Vice”:



American Vice is an inside look at a multi-billion dollar industry that isn’t listed on any stock exchange: illegal gambling. With access unlike anything else on TV, it follows the underground game runners, bookmakers, and casino operators in New York who walk the thin line between big risk and big reward every day.

Is BAS in this episode?

 

[SoCal]

I am watching it now. 5 minutes in. I have one simple question. How in the blue fck are these guys comfortable in documenting themselves breaking the law? For example.. an federal investigator could use at least some of this info to go after them. I would expect when one's freedom is at stake, one would want to stay under the radar at all costs. Am I missing something here? The guy from Philly just announced he is running an underground casino!?!?! How easy is it now to track him and bring that operation down? WTF man !?!?!

Hopefully you are not believing all this reality tv bullshit

Good point. I know better than to believe everything I see of the tube. Nobody could be this .... brazen

 

[ivyconniver]

Yea, there's no way that stuff was real. I'm sure it's realistic, but these guys aren't the ones doing it. First of all, they would be the dumbest crooks known to man. Second, NONE of the players would agree to be filmed. You think the guy dropping $10k a hand at blackjack wants his wife and coworkers to know that?

 

[Greenbacks]

Nah. mom said i could stay up and fix posts tonight.

fify =FIXED IT FOR YA

She's pretty easy goin' when she gets her valium script....more than i can say for you

 

[MemphisMonroe]

First thing i notice is how these guys are talking how big time they are and how much action they take and win on etc but limit players in the 1st round of March madness cause they say all the #1 seeds cover.

Umm the player do have to win sometimes to lose money $1000 is a ridiculously low amount limit especially if you have a organization as these guys claim with runners etc.

 

[The Guesser]

This is more staged than WWE. Total Divas makes this thing look real. But it's damn entertaining. Has every stereotype down pat.

 

[fade2win]

show ranks right up there with amish mafia

this TRASH should be on the comedy channel, Total JOKE

[MemphisMonroe]

These guys were getting killed by street players......real pros would bankrupt them in 1 night

 

[bigbet1234]

So what about the drug dealer shows. Drugs INC. Those guys cover their face, I think it is mostly real

 

[DNoonan]

i wonder about how those guys dont found out by the cartel suppliers tho...even with a ski mask if you know someone, you know them
