Actually I like to watch WPT shows. They usually broadcast close to all hands in a given sitting, so it gives more about how a tourney really is. To some people, of course, this is boring, though for me it is very interesting

I agree! WSOP coverage wasn't that great - they only broadcast a few key hands and nothing in between (I followed the LIVE coverage on the net and there have been a lot more interesting run-ins at feature tables than what was shown on TV) I haven't watched much of WPT lately, but from what I remember they covered more hands...

hmm yeah, but still I think of WSOP more and more like it is pure show. So if I want to see things just for show, WSOP is perfect or even some Poker After Dark shows or something like that. If I want to watch "real" poker I try to check the WPT shows.

you can find sme poker shows on AB3 and eurosports. Actually on AB3 you can watch last WSOP main event.
I prefer watching EPT or WPT on live, usually the TV table gives ebough action to be very intersting.
I prefer watching Poker After Dark or High Stacks Poker over WSOP or WPT. Since I have to choose between these 2, then WPT is the better choice. They show far more hands so the game doesn't seem disjointed.
