Some of the lines are ridiculous, but I find WPT to be at least better than Poker MIllion (British Poker show, anouncers suck ass)!

Wow, to each his own is right. I hate Norman Chad. Yes, every once in a while he has a comical one liner. But most are so stupid and contrived, and then Lon will give the obligatory three chuckle. Just terrible. Of course he did replace Gabe Kaplan, who replaced DICK Van Patten, so I guess I shouldn't complain.
Also, I think VVP is good as is Mike Sexton, although they do tend to overemphasize things. And I liked Jesse May on Late Night Poker. Just because someone doesn't go out of his way to try to be witty, doesnt mean he isnt good. He is the play by play if you will, not the color. So what should he do. In the Fox broadcasts, I think Chris Rose does a good job for someone who doesnt know much. Its that Michael Konik or whatever. Makes me want to puke. I wanted to read some of his books but I wont pay anything for one.
