translated from Spanish: Nacho Gutierrez: “We believe in the social role of television, but we also see that it is time to disconnect a little from the day to day”

A game program, with celebrities betting in different modalities in a casino and where the audience and the spectator can win attractive prizes. This is “I bet…”, a format led by Ignacio Gutierrez and departing tonight at 22.00 hours, from the Casino Enjoy in Santiago, with Pamela Díaz as first guest.” We believe in public service and the social role of television, but we also see that it’s time to disconnect a little from the day to day, so we decided to opt for a game show where generosity is present,” says the reporter about this new space. Although it was only last November that he was leaving TVN to pursue other projects with his production company Northfield, Gutiérrez returned on December 24 to TVN to accompany María Luisa Godoy in “Good Morning to All”, following the departure of Cristián Sánchez. Despite this, the animator continues to be linked in parallel with TV+, a channel for which Northfield performs the program “With Love” and now “I bet…”. On the latter space, Gutierrez explains that “I compete with a celebrity, who will bet on different games with me that have to do with the dynamics of a casino. If I win, the prize is not taken by me, but that anyone who is in the audience, from the Enjoy where we are in the minute, or perhaps the electronic tombola can determine that it is someone who is in the house watching the show.” He says one of the attractions of the program is that a contract is signed at the beginning, where the guest agrees to participate in different casino games and undergo tests that will have to go back. “I cried with laughter watching the tests we’ve done, we had a great time. It will be a full hour of détente and being able to connect and have a wave with the guests,” the animator promises. “In the first program we will have Pamela Diaz, we will also be with the three MILFs, I would love to have as a guest the comedian Felipe Avello. The important thing is that we have a good time, to lower the barriers, here we do not want a public relations interview but we want to play,” he adds. It advances that the games vary according to the program, can be, for example, black jack, roulette, all or nothing, each with a different prize per night. “If the guest wins, and if he wants, he can give it to someone in the audience, it depends on the generosity of each one,” Gutierrez explains. “The electronic tombola determines whether the winner is someone who is in the casino or someone who is watching the show from home. Also, for the people who go to the casino that day we have prepared special prizes,” he adds. Viewers can also participate via Twitter, Instagram or Facebook and also through a Whatsapp phone.
