"And for the life of me I couldn't understand how poker became a spectator sport...."

If it has to be explained, you will never understand.

Can't understand why poker has become a spectator sport?

The invention of the camera table has made it so. Seeing the player's hole cards makes it much more interesting to watch when you know if they're bluffing.

I watched an old replay of the WSOP from the late 80's or early 90's and it wasn't nearly as interesting.
