Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaIt seems likely the character of Joey Frost is loosely based on Stewie Unger, the youngest-ever WSOP champ in the 1980s, also blessed with a terrific memory and ability to read opponents.
- GoofsJoey Frost's drivers license shows his date of birth as being January 8, 1985 and the issue date for the license is April 25, 1999. That would have made Joey only 14 years old at the time, one year too young for even a learners permit and two years too young for a drivers license. This episode takes place late in 2005 making Joey only 20, one year too young to be legally allowed onto a gambling boat or into a bar.

Featured review
Teenage gambler
A really outstanding performance from Lou Taylor Pucci as a young and most immature gambling protégé highlights this particular Criminal Intent episode.
Jay Patterson is our victim here, a respected former Chancellor of the City Schools system who writes an advice column now who is a degenerate gambler. Pucci is brought in to clean the guy out which he does on a gambling ship. Shortly afterward Patterson's body is found in the water. He either he jumped or he had help going over.
Pucci is one of the most interesting characters ever on the series that Goren and Eames had to deal with. Check out the portrayals of both Michelle Pawk as his degenerate mother and John Pankow as his uncle who really raised him and taught him the trade. More than a hint of incest here. His father was a victim of a mob hit.
When he throws that tantrum in the interview room Vincent D'Onofrio starts working a whole new approach to Pucci. The truth as it always does on Criminal Intent comes out.
Definitely see this for Mr. Pucci.
