Default Why is poker getting so much attention and not chess?

Poker is much simpler than chess and noise is part of the game. Only
strong
ones can survive hostile conditions and win. Nerves are not so visible
during a chess game and cameras don`t make noise and only idiots can
complain about them.


And this is the reason why chess cannot be advertised on TV.


TV should be used for popularization of chess including broadcasts from
chess events. Only idiots claim the opposite.
