Just saw an ad for Samuel Adams beer that takes place in a home poker game. One of the last remaining players in the hand holds only two cards, so you know they’re probably playing Texas Hold’Em. The guy folds, and his opponent beams at his win as he throws down his cards. Everyone yells and groans, so you know that the winner got away with a huge bluff.
But you can just barely see the cards before the scene cuts away. They were a 7 and 2 of different suits, the absolute worst hand in Texas Hold’Em.
Now, I know the game is popular right now, so that knowledge is probably a little more common than it used to be, but like that Wizard of Oz themed Visa ad where the girl buys silver (NOT ruby) slippers online, I appreciate the attention to detail…
