Player Poker Tour World
Let me talk about the World Poker Tour, it was the very first TV weekly show of the genre in the US. This was the first program where you would (as the spectator) see the hole cards of the player (Poker Tour World) as the action unfolded. It was made feasible due to the miniature camera, and the Finals game was filmed when there were just 6 competitors. Realziing what cards the player (Poker Tour World) has gives the thrill of watching, the spectator fully knows if this guy is bluffing, or if he is not. Concrete analysis is done by notable personalities Van Patten and Mike Sexton. If you are a fan of Shana Hiatt (part of the show too), then you do know that she does her own commentaries. Even if you have never been a player (Poker Tour World) of the show, watching the show would serve as a learning tool. It is an ideal way of seeing reactions from the pros, the real pros I mean- as opposed to your casino veteran who is nothing but air in terms of bragging. Indeed, with no less than fifty million poker buffs in America, this genre of poker show would keep on running- and I for one, would keep on watching.
