    Default Poker Tournament Robbed Live On TV

    Last Saturday, six men armed with machine guns stormed a poker tournament at the Berlin Grand Hyatt, and made off with one million Euros. It was the perfect plan save the part about the tournament being broadcast on live television.
    Update: German Poker Robbery Included Machetes Too -- Back Porch FanHouse

    Think its real or a hoax for ratings? Lot of debate about that on tv shows today.

    Not a hoax consider it's all over the news, if they were pulling a prank to up the ratings I think they would get in more trouble

    Saw the story Sunday night after the Oscars. Personally, i'm so sick of news reporting non-news stories. Capt. Sully retiring, so what, he's old and underpaid, he made a shitload of money off of appearances and book deals, not news! Like now, everyone wants to interview the girl who Conan O' Brien decided to follow on Twitter. Who cares, that isn't news. Bill Maher mentioned this recently on Real Time, and I agree with his stance on it.

    The only thing I think should get robbed is Lil' Wayne's prison virginity when he gets in jail. Maybe there should be bets in place of who takes it first.
