The popularity of Texas hold-'em 

Psyborg in spaceoker is (or is becoming) a very popular game. The variant of Texas hold-'em is increasingly popular with both professional players and novices.

The great thing about Texas hold-'em, is that anyone can learn to play it in less than 5 minutes. It doesn't mean they'll be any good, but that's another discussion.

So what happened ? How did it become a popular "sports" on television ?
It's got some great assets. First of all, most shows have a small introduction that allows first-time players to get to know the game.
Secondly, most shows feature a camera view so you can see all the players, with their cards. This allows you to see what every player does, and why.
And last but not least, many shows feature commentators who give tips, hints and reasoning behind a certain decision of a player.

It's a whole lot of fun. But trust me, it's a lot more fun to actually play the game with friends.
