Watching the World Series of Blackjack.
It is such a pathetically blatant copy of the WPT it ain't even funny.
What do you guys think?
Did you know that participating in a poker forum can help you improve your own game? Be it by sharing experiences or simply asking for help, participation in a forum helps you focus and keep 'on topic' which will help you improve your game. You can learn from other players feedback and from their experiences. Why the THP poker forums? We offer one of the best managed texas holdem poker forums available, and the community within is far more friendly than those typicaly found on other sites. We've made a 'lurkers edition' of the poker forum available here on Holdem Poker Online, but we encourage all visitors to register and join in on the conversations on TexasHoldem-Poker.com

Ive never seen it but by the sound of it it, I doubt its anygood. Blackjack is not nearly as fun to watch as holdem.

If probability dictates you lose money over a long time, how can you consistently make money at blackjack short of card counting.

I'm very sad and embarrassed to say that I wasted an hour or two watching a couple episodes of that crap. It made me laugh for a while as I watched the announcers talk about the "strategy". The only thing you can really do is match someone else's bet value. And that is hardly considered "strategy" in my opinion. But to listen to the announcers, you'd think these jokers were Rhodes Scholars.
I'm waiting for the World Series of Rock, Paper, Scissors !!

You should read the rules there pretty funny. I especially like rule 2
