    Since i enjoy playing poker, i really enjoy watching the World Poker Tour where you can pick up tips by watching the pros! The World Poker Tour show shows the final table of major events. The players are playing for huge stakes sometimes over two million dollars, which makes watching this show exciting since players are desperate to win that huge amount of money. Not only are viewers of the show watching professionals play poker, they can also see the cards that the players are playing. This is great for people who wish to learn how to play certain hands of poker. Very entertaining show.moreless

    One of the better poker shows out there -- second to High Stakes Poker and the WSOP coverage.

    I've rented the DVDs for older seasons and some of the coverage can be pretty good. Announcers actually understand the game and make some insightful comments..

    Players are a good mix of pros and up and coming amateurs and wanna bees...

    Always fun to watch people make million dollar decisions -- makes Survivor / etc. etc. look like a bunch of kids fighting over a stack of pennies..

    Shows like this demonstrate how different styles, approaches ,and experience continue to make poker the best game out there.moreless

    You usually have guys nobody ever heard of making it to the final table where they vie for a million dollars in cash, but even 2nd usually gets a half million.

    Good show to try and guess the right move since nobody knows which card will be drawn next. Texas No Limit Holdem is the favorite poker game because its simple, all the cards, besides the players 2 cards, are on the table; then the dealer plops down 5 cards and the best hand wins - unless someone is good at bluffing.

    The only downside to the way its editted is that during the final 15 minutes if its down to 2 guys and the guy with the least amount of money goes ALL IN, you know hes going to win since if he lost the show would end 15 minutes too early! Likewise if the guy with more than half the money goes ALL IN with 5 minutes or less to go, you know he has it in the bag since there wouldnt be enough time for another hand if he lost.moreless

  • This is a great poker show.

    The world poker is one of the best poker shows on TV. I like to watch it because I like poker. I must be the only person I know who even knows how to play it. But there's no debating for me that poker is a good game and that the World Poker Tour is the highest poker show airing. And so if you love poker, you've got, I mean GOT to watch it. Hear it? If you like poker, you'll watch this show, because it's simply probably the best poker show on TV. Lots of fun and a great way to learn how to play.moreless

    This is one of my personal favourites, and definately an underappreaciated one. The best poker players in the world are featured in this programme, as well as great locations and great hosts. I thought the first three seasons were very good, although Season 1 was a little bit bland, but I guess it was because it was brand new. Season 4 was good but I thought the hostess was a little off-key at times.
    I think this programme works because of the way the commentators work off each other, and of course the hostess, which adds to the entire programme.
    I thoroughly recommend this programme.moreless
