As a chess lover, I find live coverage of chess at all speeds compelling. If I have any preference it is for the slower games, because then you almost always have time to make your own reasoned judgments - i.e. guess the next move is more meaningful. Good expert commentary will entertainingly fill any deadspots - ironically a common problem is that the experts get so deeply engaged in "what might happen?" that they frustratingly don't notice when the players have made a move.
