Yeah, definitively.. title is accurate.. it's like golf betting and side bets.. there's often more money in side bets than on the table. Remember on High Stakes Poker when they all had their sheets with the numerous side bets they had? if I remember correctly the producers had to ask them to focus more on the actual game..

Yep, I remember that quite well. I'm glad they did away with those 'prop' bets; it was definitely leaving some viewers wondering "wtf are they talking about."
