Add Image S1, Ep4. When Rob's college friend comes to visit, Rob challenges him by betting on everything from golf to poker. S1, Ep5. Rob competes in his first poker tournament, but suffers a humiliating loss. Amber tries to soothe him with a romantic, home-cooked dinner. S1, Ep6.

S1, Ep8. S1, Ep9. It's worth noting that one reason they are still together--they will celebrate 15 years of marriage in April--is that they listen to each other and know how to sacrifice and compromise. We see that, even after two and a half years of marriage, they are clearly in sync to each other's needs, even if they can't deliver what the other person wants at the time. Rob, for example, ends up missing Amber's reunion to compete in a big poker game, but then spends all the money he wins treating her to a dress she had refused to purchase earlier too expensive and a night on the town.
Amber recognizes when her husband needs a break from poker and, and arranges a weekend back home for him to rejuvenate. These scenes are fun to watch and clearly demonstrate that marriage is give and take, even in a reality TV show series.
