The ethically questionable game of skill comes up as Pauly is on prop-bet tilt after losing a scaled down apple bet. From there, the good doctor and his Euro-conscience debate what games of bum abuse may or may not be acceptable.

The big bet comes when Matt Showell challenges his PokerListings colleague Rod Stirzaker‘s claim that he can eat 50 apples in 90 minutes. Legal concerns emerge (what’s the rule on a prop bet that leads to death?) before it turns into a scavenger hunt to find 50 edible Granny Smiths at 3:30am in Budapest.

A tad of religious guilt kicks in as the poker media duo contemplates the Day of the Dead on the Danube.
