Anyone else addicted to poker on tv?
I'm watching it right now. Celeb vs. Pros.
I just like to watch and think about what I would do in the same situation.

1. Not addicted..
But if I come across it I'll stop and watch. I can't fully explain my interest... but I don't mind watching it. I haven't watched the Celeb vs Pros thing. However, I do remember one poker thing I watched when the owner of the Lakers made it to the final two (He did lose).

3. It's on Game Show Network right now.
They have it on there, Travel Channel or Bravo often.

I got to watch Lance Bass and Jennifer Tilly get their asses kicked. Tilly looked really good until they got to the river.

2. Don't much like watching the celebs play
But when I see the pros playing I'll stop and watch.

4. I normally don't care for the celebs
but will sometimes watch when it's celebs and pros-just to watch the celebs get taken down.

5. Love celeb poker in Bravo.
I'm addicted to that show.

(Dennis Rodman was an absolute jerk on the championship round this past Sunday,).


Dave Foley cracks me up and the Loser's Lounge is almost as fun as the player's table sometimes.

Definitely not a show for righties.

:D

6. No it's not.
Most of the players that I have watched have been big-time libs or progressives. Celeb poker usually has alot of Bush jokes flying around.
I still like watching the pros better. It gives me tips for the next poker night (which I got kicked out of and am now in search of a new group).
