Why does it make sense for the pros to do this cash game on TV? What are they getting out of it that makes it worthwhile? [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

lol, they're playing a $300/600NL game with a min $100,000 buy-in and you're wondering why they are playing? Please tell me you're joking.

Why would I be joking? What would your minimum buy-in be for 300/600 NL?

I'm under the assumption that they could get this kind of game on their own, or play their regular 2000/4000 game or whatever they want. What do they gain from the TV exposure?

More so than tournaments, I would think that holecams would give away a lot of information in cash games that those pros really don't want to reveal.
Anyone have an answer? It's not just the draw of the game itself, is it? [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

And TV would attract more fishier fish at these buy ins than the equivilent in a casino could - imagine all the B list actors trying to get some exposure...
