High Stakes Poker on GSN continues to dominate as the leading poker television show, leaving the others way behind. The only complaint I have is that the ratio of actual content to commercial time is about 50:50. Truth be told, I'd watch it if it were 30:70.
In a recent episode, Phil Hellmuth loses his stack to Barry Greenstein after the latter flops a set of deuces. The resulting tirade by Phil, together with commentary by hosts Gabe Kaplan and AJ Benza, provide for great comic relief.
Phil : He had a fucking set. I had him on his fucking small pair. I fucking quit.
Gabe : Phil in a reflective mood here.
AJ : Barry rakes in 150 grand while Phil busts out for the second time.
Phil : I should've fucking quit.
Gabe : More self-examination.

I hope they release unedited DVD's with all the taped footage. This is by far the most engaging poker ever put on tv.
