In Response To: The Falafel Quiz (Timothy Chow)

Poker players' hand winning chances are front and center for the TV audience. Pot size and pot odds are also available to producers to show when the situation calls for it. I'd argue computer generated analysis is fundamental to Poker's success on TV.

People want to know whats right and whats wrong. For example, There were several situations in the Phil/Mochy match where someone watching the feed would comment on what XG said about a cube or a tough checker play. The comment would then be relayed to the announcers and they would tacitly acknowledge the information. it's really just a question of whether the analysis is relayed as part of the broadcast or whether it is generated second hand via an Internet comment. This is a no brainer.
