The TV show Entourage will have a few hotshot poker pros in an upcoming episode.
Antonio “The Magician” Esfandiari is known for his lavish lifestyle, and as such seemed a logical choice to tap when the folks behind the Entourage TV show were looking for some slick poker pros for an upcoming episode.
The leader of the Victory Poker team brought along a pal – and fellow Team Victory member – as Alec “Traheho” Torelli tagged along and wound up in the scene with the Magician.
Esfandiari played the poker pro, a role he knows well enough not to have to call for lines – he also performed some of his slick chip tricks, showing off the heightened dexterity behind the talent that earned him the nickname of “the Magician.”
"I was shooting a poker scene for Entourage,” said Esfandiari, “and Alec came along for the ride. Somehow he got to be in the scene with me which was pretty cool. Not to mention we were BOTH allowed to wear our Victory patches."
