2 Months, $2 Million: Aiming too high?

With not much time left to earn $2 million in two months, some doubts have begun to rise in the top pros' mansion as some of them wonder had they perhaps set a too high goal for themselves.

show stars Dani Stern, Emil Patel, Brian Roberts and Jay Rosenkrantz still haven't made any notable steps towards their $2 million goal, but they did step into a Playboy Club to find hot dates.

Emil pretended to be a prince from Dubai to get the lady he laid his eyes upon, meanwhile Dani used a different approach and just went around the club until he found someone willing to go on a date with him.

The date included a helicopter ride over Las Vegas and a dinner in an expensive restaurant which stunned Emil's date once she found out that an entrée costs more than her rent. However, the four pros may be rich but they will still have to work hard to earn $2 million and they won't get any closer to it by spending most of their time relaxing and forgetting about the bad beats.

A devastating week for the team

Jay RosenkrantzDani lost a modest $2,000 by the end of the week, Emil lost $16,000 and the biggest loser was Brian Roberts with $111,000 less to play with. The only player on the team who had a "profitable" week was Jay, ending it up by $1,000.

Jay (pictured right) was on the verge of losing a lot of money as well, but a visit to his mother helped him "put things into perspective" and return to the mansion feeling refreshed and ready to chase that $2 million challenge. The players are now entering the final weeks of the show and unless they pull off some miracle sessions, it will be good if they can reach $1 million.

While a large part of the episode was dedicated to the ladies, the end was naturally reserved to the penalty stunt. Brian had to become a stand-up comedian for a night and step up in front of a large audience. Surprisingly, after a somewhat rocky start, he got the hang of it and eventually began making jokes on his three buddies. It seems that the penalty stunts have started to turn out more embarrassing to the other three players, rather than the loser of the week.
