I'm watching the World Poker Tour on the Travel Channel. I don't believe I've posted about it before, but I have enjoyed watching it so far. Last week's in Paris was probably a highlight. This week, at the Commerce Casino, could've been exciting, but Bob Stupek is about to be sent packing, I think. Pair of 5s against a pair of jacks. And yes, he caught an inside straight draw, but didn't make it.

Some might say that the World Poker Tour is an overly-produced, ultra-slick commercialization of ESPN's poker coverage. And they would be right. But at least unlike ESPN's World Series of Poker coverage, it doesn't bore me to death. Though from what I've heard about this year's World Series, it should be fun to watch.
