2. I don't think so.
My friends and I often watch it. I recognize a number of big names and faces. It's like any other sport. However, celebrity poker ? To be blunt, WHO GIVES A SHIT ?

My life doesn't revolve around celebrities, and other people we're TOLD are important. I couldn't care less about the tabloids, or whatever gossip is fresh. To sit and watch a bunch of, in some cases, utter morons (this means YOU PARIS HILTON !!!) play poker, your life must be completely barren of excitement.

3. I LOVE watching No Limit Texas Hold 'Em...but
I don't want to see some freakin' amateur celebrities play.

James Woods is the exception because he actually plays with the pros sometimes.

4. And that announcer's voice is annoying as hell!
"5 and 10 dollar blinds, shuffle up and deal!"

Mena Suvari and Dave Navarro were pretty good.

5. Why do I want to watch hacks play?
I'd rather watch people who know what they're doing. It would be like NBC showing ME playing golf instead of Tiger Woods. :wtf:
