Tiffany Michelle and Maria Ho eliminated

Yes! It's all over for poker players Tiffany Michelle and Maria Ho on the Amazing Race reality show. I gotta tell you that this was painful to watch from the day one debacle to the crying and whining end of Tiffany and Maria. I am all for poker players doing there thing and taking advantage of opportunities when they present themselves. However, I am not in favor of making yourself and the game of poker look bad in the process. No matter how they may have thought things out initially their plotting and scheming early in the race set the tone for how they would be perceived throughout.

Hopefully we can all take a break from reality TV for a while until the next poker player decides to take someone up on the offer of a reality show. I suppose that I will focus a little time on the 2 months 2 million show and see how that is playing out. At least the show is about poker players playing poker. Maybe showing poker players in their natural habitat is the way to go. Ya think?
