When is poker on tv
High-Stakes Poker began airing in early with an idea unique to the TV poker world: air the biggest cash games in the world instead of big tournaments. Featured in a private room at the Golden Nugget in Downtown Las Vegas, the show films some of the top professional poker players and some wealthy amateurs playing for real cash.
Each player buys in with his or her own money, with virtually no maximum limit. Probably for dramatic television effect, players can even bring stacks of cash to use along with their chips. Lakers owner Jerry Buss, and a wealthy local physician whose name is currently escaping me. I always find unique sounds to be extremely entertaining and I think that Kaplan has an interesting voice combined with a nice touch of humorous sarcasm.
To a great dismay of poker fans High Stakes Poker was discontinued in There were many petitions and requests sent to GSN to return the show, but, unfortunately, at this point it no longer seems likely. This is where the real money is. As usual, there are way too many commercials for me to stomach so be sure to set up your DVR for this one. It was, and for several years to come.
New episodes of the show used to run on Mondays at 9pm with reruns at 2am late Monday night and throughout the week. Ratings have been strong for this late-night newcomer so expect it to become a TV poker mainstay. As they have an entire week to air a single tournament there i s minimal editing for time as opposed to a similarly-formatted show like Poker Superstars. Poker After Dark has several hours to work with and airs seemingly insignificant hands like blind-steals and small pots.
While this may seem like filler to casual TV poker fans, actual poker players will appreciate the opportunity to follow the strategy of the full tournament rather than just watch highlights of all-in action. The total airtime of the tournament is about the same time it took to actually play the tournament. Besides the occasional live poker on holidays, this is very unique. While I often enjoy pro analysis, Poker After Dark provides a different and minimalist approach that appeals to both fans and players of the game.
This also suits the overnight time slot, which is the prime viewing time for poker players. The production, set, lighting, and graphics are top-notch, which is would you would expect from a major network. The invitation-only format also makes for better television as the field can be hand-picked to those we really care to watch. Personally, my interest level in a poker show is much higher when I can watch 6 recognizable poker pros playing a good poker game with solid strategy and a mutual respect for each other.
I would much rather watch Poker After Dark than most episodes of the World Poker Tour because of the non-edited play and the professional field. What better learning learning tool can you have than that? You can usually catch new episodes on Mondays during the Fall. This program largely seeks to make poker stylish with concert lighting and techno for pivotal tournament situations.
I like the fact that these are open tournaments that anyone can enter, but at the same time I like to see my favorite pros consistently battle off satellite-winners. Mike Sexton and Vince van Patten make a good team and their analysis of hands is usually right on. While the show is somewhat bloated in its two-hour time slot, it does allow you to see a good number of hands. Fast-forwarding through the commercials , you can watch it in about minutes. Out of 10, I give the World Poker Tour an 8. You can usually catch episodes on Wednesdays and Saturdays.
The concept of Poker Superstars is to hold an invitation-only tournament for some of the biggest names in poker. I believe they started out with 24 players in the second season and the tournament is in a playoff format rather than a shootout for all the money.
There are single table elimination matches at the start of each season with each episode. Each table is a group of 6 players, which compete against each other 2 or 3 times. Players are rewarded with points for finishing in the top places.
After a few rounds of elimination matches, the players with the most points survive. The field gets down to 16, and each point accumulated during the elimination matches gives the player more starting chips in the next round. The final two rounds are heads-up matches. Not only is it cool to be able to watch a tournament made up strictly of poker legends, but the playoff structure makes the event really interesting.
Watching the convoluted strategy that players often have to employ to advance to the next round is interesting. For example, at the player level, the top 2 point-earners advance from each 4-player table. They play two matches against the same players, so if a player finished in last in the first round, he would have to knock out the other players in an exact order to be able to advance.
Since every match is shorthanded it serves up a lot of action. The survivors from both Day 2abd and 2cef combine for Day 3 on Thursday, Nov In a traditional structure, one player will then win the table and proceed into the money.
