If I ran a poker TV station....

[Mark S.]

What amazes me about all these poker TV channels is that nobody asked ME how they should portray poker on TV!!

My TOP 10 wants for TV Poker are....

1. More LIVE POKER!
2. Less CELEBRITY BOLLUX!
3. Analysis from people who KNOW what they're talking about!
4. Presenters who know the game!
5. More discussion programmes!
6. More camera visits of the smaller locations to show how poker is growing!
7. Interviews with some proper players!
8. Give some player $1M to play his/her way around the world in 12 months doing video blogs as they went!
9. Show the LOSERS and how poker is not all its cracked up to be sometimes.
10. Bring back Late Night Poker!!

The great thing about forums is that you can debate stuff!

So debate!!

I, too, noticed that Mark was starting his own threads rather than joining in on others. please don't turn this into a UKpoker soapbox.

why would they ask you? tv companys are out for the mass market not the indivaul or even the hardcore poker fans

1. More LIVE POKER!

hard to schedule never runs on time and its so boring

2. Less CELEBRITY BOLLUX!

apeals the the average chav on the street and therefore increases ratings

3. Analysis from people who KNOW what they're talking about!
4. Presenters who know the game!

i am open for decent offers

5. More discussion programmes!

i liked barbeats but it only apealed to the hardcore also it needs a new editor and production team

6. More camera visits of the smaller locations to show how poker is growing
7. Interviews with some proper players!

poker 425

8. Give some player $1M to play his/her way around the world in 12 months doing video blogs as they went!

i am open too offers

9. Show the LOSERS and how poker is not all its cracked up to be sometimes.

watching mike magee bubble in wsop on tv was more than i could take

10. Bring back Late Night Poker!!

late night poker ace 2 is going to be more like the late night poker of old although i think its a tired and dated show now there are better ways to show a STT shootout on tv i could tell them how if they asked me
