I think that there's action on most hands on HSP.

i think his strategy works bad vs ppl who call light/ play smart.
hes a degen, and I think the stakes are not very high for him, so he can tilt,, where as if this game is sick high for you, you cant tilt.

overall, hes a savage imo. regardless.

Disagree, according to most of what I;ve read, a vast majority of hands played ARE aired. HSP is one of the least edited poker shows on TV.

I heard this as well. I was under the impression that they play almost every hand in order.

no way.
in a real cash game youd have so many pots taht are taken down pf, or w/ a cbet on flop. HSP is never like that: the action always reaches the turn or river.

I'd say they prolly air like 1/3 or 1/5 of the hands.

Normally I'd say it is liek 1/8, but I figure everyone plays a bit looser, so I guess 1 out of 3 or 4 hands or 2 hands an orbit sounds reasonable.

I think PAD is much more accurate; you see how ppl take down pots pf, etc..

Im not sure Gder. You would be right but look at the starting hands they are playing

If every time a flop was seen the players in question had big aces, pairs or suited connectors I would agree with you but guys like Fahra, Elezra and Gold probably literarly have a VPIP of over 50%. Has Fahra ever folded preflop?
It's not uncommon to see A7o vs 63s and J9o to the flop so they wouldn't need to edit out many pots taken down preflop in my opinion.
