but... it's a TV SHOW.

i'm pretty sure that when it comes to tv shows, the world does, in fact, revolve around making good tv.

So, whereas this program is a reality show where we get to see a real high stakes cash poker game, that is not what you want to watch. Obviously you would rather they write a script and hire actors to play the hands they set up, every action scripted and all cards scripted - so you get good entertainment.

Personally I would rather watch a real game and am fine with the realism.
