Sick Sick Ad/Video

This DC shoes video shows some of the coolest driving and effects I've seen in what is basically an ad. There is no doubt that it increases the coolness of the brand and is awesome, but how do you measure the value that this created (because it certainly was expensive to make!)?

Colin Cruising Early

Catching the action with the board reading Bryan Colin slid out a bet of 25,000 into an already healthy pot of 55,000. His only opponent in the hand deliberated over the decision for quite a while before eventually making the call. Colin turned over his for a flopped set, and his opponent mucked to see Colin rake in the pot to move to over 150,000 - just over double what he began the day with.
