Pro Poker Player, Scott Lazar learned a valuable lesson recently on the importance of when bluffing is not successful. Lazar, executive producer of the movie “Deal”, released in 2008, was hit with a hefty law suit after allegedly screwing a company out of big bucks.
According to the lawsuit, filed in LA County, Gambling Times Inc. claims Scott Lazar promised the company a highly visible product placement during the film in exchange for a 50K investment.
The movie starring legend, Burt Reynolds and fellow poker player, Shannon Elizabeth, apparently provided no such plug, therefore the law suit. Deal, making only about 78K worldwide, will hardly even cover the damages of the no less than 1 Million Dollar law suit filed by Gambling Times.
Looks like Lazar needs to take some lessons in bluffing, or consider leaving that skill to only be used on the poker table.
