Dave Foley used to front this special program called Celebrity Poker Showdown, and he had internationally renouned poker professional Phil Gordon as his sidekick teaching people and commenting on what was happening on the Celebrity poker tournaments they held each year.
Poker has been gaining more and more followers in the last few years, and this show was probably a contributor to that.
It was very entertaining, you could see some of the glam with all the actors, actresses, and other stars playing the game, and you could also have Phil Gordon teaching some moves.
Watching some of those past videos is a good way of practicing poker, and let´s all say it: We miss Dave Foley on TV. So if not on Newsradio or The Kids in The Hall, perhaps we could also give a little love to this other show he was in.
So, here to review a couple of the videos of Celebrity Poker Showdown.
Dyan Cannon is turning 72. The blonde actress was very famous in the Series and Television world when she portrayed Judge Whipper Cone in the megahit TV Show Ally McBeal, and also, the same character in The Practice, another attorneys show contemporary to Ally McBeal. She was 62 when she played a nude scene in Ally McBeal and she was still great looking. Happy Birthday Dyan Cannon.
Dave Foley, the star of Newsradio turned 46. He was also known for his role in Will & Grace as Stuart Lamarack, and his many many characters in Kids in the Hall, a classic comedy show. He also was the presenter of Celebrity Poker Showdown.
