   I rarely watch poker on TV but why do people watch people playing anything on TV? Because it’s interesting I guess. Poker certainly is and that’s why it’s suich a popular sport to watch.

   I think the people who watch this show (Poker after Dark) are generally:
   1. Fans of the pros of poker, where as watching these players is the equivalent to a basketball fan watching their favorite NBA player.
   2. Fans of the game of poker. Watching the poker is intellectually stimulating if you understand the different levels of thinking. Much like a grand game of chess.
   3. Fans of the appeal of poker, which is the fact that poker is a game for anybody with enough money to buy in, despite your skill level. I mean the WSOP is pretty much like hitting the mega millions with way better odds.

   Each tim an episode is aired why do they have to explain the rules? You watch a major sport and the commentators do not go over the scoring.
