I HATE Texas Hold'em, even just the name of it piss me off now.
You can blame the internet itself. Internet poker has allowed just about anyone to score a inexpensive chance at the WSOP. Several years in a row now some no-name internet qualifier has won the millions.

Also, the use of hole-card cameras have made poker an appealing spectator sport on TV.

Poker ads are far superior to viagra or anti-spyware ads. Not to mention the "win a free video game system" ads. All those ads piss me off to no end.
