| Just curious if any online poker sites allow you to watch tournaments in real time? If so which ones? Thanks. |

| I believe most all sites allow you to watch. Poker Stars and Poker Room most certainly do. Poker Stars even allows observers to chat w/ people at the table (good and bad) Poker Room only allows you to watch. |

If you are talking about online tournaments, you've got your answer.
But if you are talking about live tournaments, the answer is still yes... sometimes.
Poker Stars set something up where they re-played the WSOPs final table live on their poker room. It was nice, but very slow. |

I think you can watch online tourneys on almost every site, this listincludes stars, Empire, party, absolute, Paradise,etc
The only site that didnt let me watch a tourney was Ultimate Bet, and as to watching live tourneys online, you should have an excellent connection, 512kbs at least

There's an option to turn observer chat off so I really don't see how it's bad. |

| I agree - you can turn observer chat off...and that does work. However there are occasionally people that are playing at other tables I want to chat with. And there are times that the chat (of other people) gets annoying/distracting. You turn observer chat off and forget to turn it back on - then get an email the next day saying: WTF Dave, I was talking to you last night and you completely ignored me. Anyway, disregard my grumpy attitude today...the morning has had a rough start. |
