Idea for TV poker
 

Maybe this has been suggested before, but I haven't seen it, anyway: How about an episode where they show only one player's hole cards the whole time, thus you get to play along the whole show as if you were that person. Wouldn't it be fun to pretend you were Negreanu for a whole show, seeing everything from his perspective, for example? I think this could help boost the ratings of some of the lower-rated poker shows, and be very educational as well (ok, maybe that's not such a good thing now that I think about it). What do you guys think?

yeah, that one player might not want the pressure, or want to give up that info on how he plays

But I agree, that would be damn cool

Well, the player in position could have his hole cards on the screen. after the hand we know what the other dude held( if theres no showdown)

Look, the ideas on this thread and other similar threads are ok, but will never be tried on FSN/ESPN/Discovery where they are going for the broadest audience. When a "gaming channel" happens, these ideas may be tried.
