Don't have any problems with good players being boring.
Why do they need to banter with each other? The producers
need to find better announcers. In most sports the
players rarely speak while playing. The announcers
keep the telecast moving and interesting.
Just heard an interview with a MMA fighter. Some of
those guys shouldn't be allowed behind the mike. Same
with many poker players.

With Barry, Ted and Allen, I'm not bored at all. I'm waiting to see a massive bluff by Barry. I'm waiting for Ted to call get an exact read on what his opponent has, and to call it out. I'm waiting for Cunningham to make a crazy call with second pair after hearing Jamie Gold talk way too much. Just because they don't have gimmicks or schticks, doesn't make them boring in my opinion.

Who are the players out there whose abilities at the poker table you respect

I disagree with Dan Harrington. I've seen him play a few times on TV and he outplayed a lot of players.

Yeah, we can't respect his game if he's going to be outplaying other people. What the hell is up with that?
