With the growing popularity of TV poker, there were too many shows to choose from :)

I'd suggest you pick your favorite, and then if you want to add more you can comment in the thread about the other shows you like.

Thanks for voting Prem!

I watch them all !!!!!!!!! :cool:

[Swiftbird]

I watch some poker on tv, but would rather play at HP and take some of seedxxxxxxxx's money :happy: Also I can work on improving my poker playing at HP and can't on tv. I get to go toe to toe with very talented players like Seedxxxxxxxx and Flop to name a few. Haven't had the chance to play against Michael or James as yet but looking forward to it. ;)

"Why watch when you can Play"

[CelticMyth74]

My favorite is the WPT with WSOP a close second. I watch it all though everything from Celebrity Poker Showdown to the Ultimate Poker Championship. I'm totally obsessed with poker; watching and playing in fact I'm usually doing both at the same time.

[Seekers]

[FONT=Georgia]BUT REALLY!!!!! James Woods made 1 Great move against Johny Chan and then played on and off good poker. Not aggresive enough and the outcome was very predictable.... Mr. Woods had already showed him (Chan) his big move. But he did sit with a master and had him guessing more than a few times which is more than I could have done....Kudos to Mr. Woods :waytogo:

[ALGOMETER]

I second the motion for the missing ALL OF THE ABOVE (a.k.a get a life) button!

Shuffle up and deal!

[Topjon1]

I watch the World Series and would like to think that I take away great ways to play the game! I have seen players hold a gaze - almost smile an opponent into folding and just sitting in the chair, frozen. I have learned some different cards to hold and to fold. :dance:

[ll2beers]

[silvertip66]

I watch all that are avalable. I really enjoyed watching James Woods on Heads-UP Championship.

[marco45]

:dance: W.S.O.P.
is my choice but this brings up a discussion i had in a weekly game i play in. im in the medical feild and poker is great to relieve stress if and i caution here if!!!!! you have players who know at least a little about the game. we got into a disscussion on the fact that for a new player im not so sure poker on television is a way for them to learn the game, i can only speak for myself but how many of you have been at a table and saw a new player go all in on say a 7-2 unsuited? maybe worst hand in the game all be cause they see a 7 on the flop i think they get this from t.v. lol!!! new players please keep in mind those are guys doing what they do for a living and try not to be influenced into bad decisios cause you saw chris moneymaker do the same thing!! :roflmao:

[senatorwu1]

Hey, lay off the 7/2 os.. Best hand ever!
