I was fascinated by the final of the world poker tour, which was replayed this weekend (remarkable final hand). But it's like reality shows -- it's a lot more fun watching other people screw up.
Query about the WPT: How boring is it for the studio audience? On TV, we get to see the hole cards, but surely the audience can't see those, lest they gasp when a pair of aces comes out (or whatever). Seeing only the flop (if they can see that), surely doesn't make for compelling viewing.

That final hand was remarkable. I also couldn't believe the risk-taking by the Russian guy. That couldn't have been by the book...
And, btw, books have been ordered... Soon I'll be able to quit my day job and head out on the World Poker Tour. Guess I'll need some help with a nickname.
