Same here. Unfortunately, I don't get to see all the episodes, but the good news is you can usually find the torrent and just download the show after it's aired.I'm looking for WSOP torrents but I can't find anything pre 2003 WSOP. Maybe they just don't exist.
When I go to a fast food restaurant, and my order comes to $6.28, I like to give the cashier $18.71. They look at me and say 'What's this?' and I say 'I'm all in'. They usually fold.

I downloaded my poker torrents from http://www.torrentspy.com/You're not able to find every single WPT episode, but if you type 'poker' in the search engine, you'll be able to get every episode from Season 1 in DVD quality. And a select number of shows from Season 2 such as Shooting Stars, Battle of Champions, Ladies Night, and the Final Episode. You can also get a lot of 2004 WSOP shows here.

Azureus and BitLord are the 2 applications that are good for downloading torrents. You need to save the torrent to your hard drive, and then open it up from there.

Obviously, it depends on the file size. A 4GB file can take over a full day to download. The WPT episodes are approx. 750 MB each and they took me about 4 - 10 hours to download, depending on how many seeders and leeches there are. Just let the download run and you'll attach to more people as the download progresses.

Just downloading the torrent isn't enough. You still need to use the torrent software to actually download the file. Think of the file as a locked door, and the torrent is the key.Once you have downloaded the file, (after you have downloaded the torrent) (and you'll know the difference, it takes about 5 seconds to download a torrent and 5 hours to download a file) you can watch it on Windows Media Player, Nero Media Player if you have that, or even Winamp. Once you have the file, you can right click it and go to 'Open With'Hope this helps, half the time I tend to ramble on about nothing!If it's still unclear, then send me a PM because this thread has seemed to have gone off topic. Or you can search for torrent help using google. Good luck.
