Default Championship Poker- Instant Replays

Am I the only one that really enjoys the instant replays on the Championship poker at the plaza show?? I think it's great seeing the players reactions in slow motion, or when the dealer messed up and the K flips over in the air.

Am I the only one getting a kick out of this??

More than that, I'm enjoying the great poker. Especially by Daniel N. And Howard's commentary is right on. This has the WPT and WSOP beat hands down.

What exactly happened on that hand? I was away from the TV for a moment and I come back, and DN is jacking it up with K9o, and somehow Deeb had a KK hand killed, right after they just showed him winning a large pot with KK? I missed something here.

And wasn't it great that a king flopped against two PPs?

Deeb already had a K in the hole and would have had KK if the dealer hadn't screwed up. Instead he had Krag and folded. Daniel had K9o knew a K was dead and raised anyway becasue he is Daniel. Flopped a K and won the pot.

I think all the fox sports events have been excellent. The coverage is so much more complete than the other shows.

I thought some of the play from tonights episode was classic. The hand where Daniel value bets his bottom pair on the river against Forrest's AK was absolutely classic IMO.

I think the production is O.K., but I hate the Fox "rabbit hunt." Do they really need to be teaching more guys in our home games how to slow things down by rabbit hunting?

CPATP is by far the best poker event aired on television so far. The quality of play is stellar. The broadcasters are good. I really liked how all of the hands were shown up front and then dropped out as the players folded. And, the extent of the coverage is amazing. Video and sound quality are better on ESPN, but who really cares about that? All in all, great show so far.

Like I said, the coverage in this event is great. However, FSN has had some pretty shabby production some on their poker events in the past. The US Poker Championship was only a decent production. But, there was one event that was aired several months ago when I saw it - can't remember what it was - but everything about it was horrible; editing, video/audio, comentation (not sure but it may have been Jesse May)... they didn't even show hole cards half of the time.

Yeah but it seems to be Fox Sports in general, I always have to blast the volume for that channel.
