yeah, colorful personalities are what people want to see on TV, in regards to any show. the average viewer doesnt care about high level thinking processes, they want to see alot of money move around and people talk smack, even in a friendly way, to each other. its entertainment, you have to show personality, either in a good or bad way. its probably way +EV for your TV poker career to splash around and act like a jackass

pretty frustrating. i'd say one hand every 20mins or whatever was hell.

Phil Hellmuth called me a nit, which is probably the most embarrassing thing that I can remember happening to me in my lifetime.

I was informed that 3 of the TV Pros from day 2 decided last minute that they wanted to play on day 3, and that I wasn’t good TV because I was so tight and didn’t talk enough to the players who don’t know me. So, I lost my spot on the table.

it’s really unfortunate that America would rather watch bad, loud poker than extremely high level thinking from the true best players in the world, but I guess they don’t know any better.

America values heart over brains and attitude over talent.

Would people pay for seeing online high stakes player playing a live short handed or heads-up game? ...would people pay for a live webcam video stream from high stakes online players while they play?
