1. No he isn't, it was a non-canon gag. It has no relation to the actual tycho, it was a joke.
2. Why did you feel the need to post that gigantic picture of heavy in the same, unrelated post?
For instance what item do you think diffrent character would bet?
Well we already know that but if it was my choice:
Heavy: Sasha
Max: Luger (well who doesn't want that luger)
Strong bad: Either the Nunchuckgun, his Dangeresque glasses, or the cheat
Tycho: Fruit fucker or maybe div
Malcom: You see... The cards... Uhhh... The cards... Chaos theory, you know... Your cards, have been uuhh, selected, for extinction, because I uuh... I win, yup. That's basically right. Yeah.
Some other ideas:
- Obi-Wan (young or old)
- LeChuck
- Link
- The Prince (from the originals PoP games from the 90's)
- Tony Montana
- Batman/The Joker
- Indiana Jones
- Roger Rabbit
- Marty McFly/Doc Brown
In future installments I really hope we get to see the Inventory more crowded, it's an awesome place.
I'd prefer Francis over Louis. Though not to say I wouldn't want both. However if I had to pick one it'd be Francis, he has much more pronounced personality traits and is more vocal about his beliefs than any other L4D character. Plus seeing him argue with the well read and overly wordy Tycho would be hilarious.
My dream list:
Francis (L4D) - Would bet his Vest
Ellis (L4D2) - Would bet his hat
Homestar - Would bet the bowl he wears in the homestarmy
Gabe - Would bet his cardboard tube
Blu Scout(would have to be blu team just to rile up the red team heavy.) - Would bet his TFC style hat / sunglasses combo OR a shotgun styled after the TFC single shotgun
Div (Penny Arcade) - No idea what he'd bet
Guybrush Threepwood - Would bet the Pyrite Parrot!
Demoman - Would bet a fancy monocle
Doc Brown - Would bet those classic silver shades of his.
Sam - Would bet his hat and revolver
Rasputin (Psychonauts) - Would bet his aviator hat/goggles
Eddie Riggs (Brutal Legend) - Would bet his Axe
"Ask a ninja" ninja would be hilarious in poker, especially if Guybrush/something piratey were also at the table. But he's not computer/cartoon graphics. Oh well.
Bender from Futurama is the one dream character I would choose above all others if I could choose literally any one comic/cartoon/videogame character.
But Sam and Gabe seem like almost certain choices if new characters are added.
What would happen if Minsc and Boo from Baldur's gate were at the table? Would he (so he claims) be getting advice from Boo or just go bust on round one and go for the eyes?
I suspect that the Tick is too stupid to play poker, but it sure would be funny while it lasted.
Invader Zimm might be fun.
And Glados. Yes. Not sure why "she" would be playing a poker game, but I'm sure there's some great dialogue in there somewhere. We already know Valve is apparently willing to work with Telltale with the Heavy. I'd like to see Alex from HL in the game (or, well, just see Alex, period,) but she might be too "realistic" to function with these jokers.

He WAS animated by Doogtoons a few times, so there IS a cartoon version they could use!
Really, Ask a Ninja has been animated? Excellent.
Seriously he's already got a voice and crazy character. I can just imagine all the ridiculous ninja-orientated dialogue he'd come up with, and I assume it wouldn't cost an arm and a leg to get him licensed to be in the game, unlike say, Bender and Lara Croft.
I think a similar dynamic to the current one can be created by making the following substitutions: -
Max - Morgan
Strong Bad - King of Town
Heavy - Spy
Tycho - Gabe
And ofc the convos and relationships would be completely fresh. I personally think it'd be hilarious! Not to mention challenging to write a script for.
Personally what I'm thinking is that a sequel can involve a lot of characters playing poker, in a real tournament, with brackets and multiple tables and everything, so you get to experience all sorts of combinations.

You do realise, don't you, that it's unlikely to sell particularly well and that they'd have to put it up at the price of a full season to pay all the voice actors for the hours of dialogue that would have to be written/recorded? (Not to mention the budget for writers and sound mixers)

Yes, of course I realize that. Still would be nice if it could be done though.
All-girl opponents! Momma Bosco is already there, (so is Stinky, but who'd want to play poker with her?) just add Marzipan, Morgan and... uh... is there a female character in TF2? Cortana maybe? I'd definitely vote for GlaDOS. That does mean there'd be two Telltale characters and no Penny Arcade one, but Tycho's niece is too young and I can't see his wife there.
ETA: I would have suggested adding Sybil instead of Momma Bosco, but I'm still mentally scarred from her appearance in Devil's Playhouse. PENNIES?!

Ah but the way society is these days, an all-female cast would treat an unknown opponent differently depending on whether they be male or female.

Well, an all-male cast would also treat an unknown opponent differently depending on whether they were male or female, and since you don't specify your gender when playing, (and maybe that's why) it wouldn't really be an issue.

I beg to differ. The only thing that would change is Heavy's line "...even then I'd just crush your head in my hands."
Personally, I think an all-female cast would get very vicious and sexist with a male opponent.
Yeah, but you missed my point - you never specify your gender to begin with when you play. The all-male players treat you like one of the guys, why wouldn't an all-girl cast treat you like one of the girls?

I'd actually want to see if Nelson Tethers would be able to get animated into the game, with a Hidden People hat as a TF2 un-lockable. I'd imagine it'd be tough on (and ultimately up to) Grickle, though.
Comments
No, you didn't. Here:
What?!
Sir, I'll have you know a velociraptor was the scourge of the poker playing world before that comet hit! For shame, saying he can't play!
I am not saying it wouldn't be awesome, but I can't see a raptor playing poker with the other characters listed.
This. Also, a bottle of Banang for the Scout! It probably won't happen, but it would sound awesome!
tycho: Call or fold?
*raptor leaps at some random guy*
tycho: I'll take that as a fold.
I THOUGHT TYCHO IS RAPTOR
2 things.
1. No he isn't, it was a non-canon gag. It has no relation to the actual tycho, it was a joke.
2. Why did you feel the need to post that gigantic picture of heavy in the same, unrelated post?
well no, its just he responds in short answers and he left the site.
For instance what item do you think diffrent character would bet?
Well we already know that but if it was my choice:
Heavy: Sasha
Max: Luger (well who doesn't want that luger)
Strong bad: Either the Nunchuckgun, his Dangeresque glasses, or the cheat
Tycho: Fruit fucker or maybe div
Homestar: Souvenir Melonade Cup
Sam: His giant Revolver
Medic: Fancy new Medigun
Gabe: Div
Malcom: You see... The cards... Uhhh... The cards... Chaos theory, you know... Your cards, have been uuhh, selected, for extinction, because I uuh... I win, yup. That's basically right. Yeah.
Grant: (out of nowhere) IAN, FREEZE!
Sorry, I'm terrible at this
Or a Melonade can! Just imagine how plain awesome it would be to win one of those:
"Blech! Tastes like dead Spy."
- Obi-Wan (young or old)
- LeChuck
- Link
- The Prince (from the originals PoP games from the 90's)
- Tony Montana
- Batman/The Joker
- Indiana Jones
- Roger Rabbit
- Marty McFly/Doc Brown

No way! I don't want to wait another 15 years.
On a side note, someone mentioned Bender from Futurama. And I must agree.

Max - Morgan
Strong Bad - King of Town
Heavy - Spy
Tycho - Gabe

Max - Pyro
Strong Bad - The Cheat
Heavy - Skunkape
Tycho - Papierwaite/Norrington

Agreed. Sorry for pouring cold water on your pipedream. I like the sound of it, a lot.

That's fair enough.
Feathers McGraw *criminal penguin with a red rubber glove on his head* from Wallace & Gromit, he doesn't talk but his reactions would be great.
LeChuck from Monkey Island
Phoney Bone from Bone
Boris/Leonard Steakcharmer from Telltale Texas Hold Em and Sam & Max
Gil Grissom from CSI! That would crack the hell out of me up.
Doc Brown from Back to the Future would be a hoot. They already got Christopher Lloyd so it be an easy awesome.
