Five seconds of looped video were all it took to make Dan Bilzerian an icon.
The clip, lifted from the live TV coverage of
the 2013 World Series of Poker in Las Vegas, shows a player sitting
at a felt table, betting on a hand, with $7 million in the pot. Or
at least that's what you think it shows the
first time you watch it. But then the clip repeats, and repeats...
until, finally, you notice the intensely staring, Tom Cruise-ish
figure in the top-left corner of the screen. He's sitting in the
spectators' gallery, bathed in blue mood-lighting, watching the
game. More to the point, there's a young woman draped over him -
black dress, long hair, adoring eyes - who appears to be employed
for the sole task of, well... stroking his beard.
