Default Poker on the Fox Sports Network

I'm watching the PartyPoker.net Aussie Millions on Fox Sports Network at the moment. It's coming from Melbourne, Australia.

I enjoy watching hands anyway, but these tournaments aren't the same without a poker star or two. Right now, the featured table is full of guys whom I've never heard of.

I think if I could see every moment of every hand, I might enjoy t.v. poker for the sake of the game. But since it's so edited you don't get the full experience, I tend to watch it more for entertainment value.

For example, there's a controversy between two guys I've never seen. One is telling the other to stop wagging a finger in his face, and the tourney officials are threatening to penalize the both of them, and I could care less. I wish they would just show another hand.

Anybody else have a problem watching when the players are unknowns, or do you simply enjoy seeing how other players play?
