I'd way way way rather play poker than watch it. Not only is it a bit boring, but TV producers over here practically try to make it one long human interest segment witha few all-in hands in-between. That said, certain unedited poker tournament broadcasts can have a wealth of education and skill demonstration for a learning player. The downside of course is the beginner mimicing the sophisticated plays they saw on TV with disasterous chip-spewing results.

Thanks for the Feedback so far ya'll!! :
