    Reality TV show about sports gamblers...

    Today there seems to be a reality show for just about everything. Is it me or wouldn't something like this get good ratings?Just follow some guy who decides to go out to vegas or follow some Professional cappers. Think of the all the storylines...Drugs,hookers, bad beats, wife problems,mistresses, staying up all night insomniacs trying to find the bailout game.I mean it would be perfect for a channel like True Tv.If they can follow pawn store owners and oil rig guys why not gamblers. Having the show take place in LV would be all legal.

    Anyone else ever thought about this? Hell, all the producers would have to do is cast from this site.

    I think one that would follow guys in Vegas and all others of the world that "try" do it for a living... I think it would make for great TV. I would watch.

    It would be hard to pitch to a big network because the GA and help centers would be all over them.

    If they did show something like this they would probably have to flank it with ads these

    I could be wrong but I think the Shrink was contacted about doing something like this with FX or Spike TV. Unfortunatly, he we know what happended to the Shrink, but I don't know why the concept never took off.
