ROGUE06 0 Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 Anyone else pumped to finally see some coverage of this year's WSOP on tv. I am pretty upset still that ESPN is airing the ME first this year instead of the preliminary events, but happy to finally be able to watch the WSOP. It starts in 3 hours and the first couple days are fun to watch since you will see all the big names bust. Link to post Share on other sites

If I didn't look carefully enough, I'd be liable to think it was a boat, or maybe a curling iron. or an autographed fax from Alan Greenspan. Whew. Link to post Share on other sites

One episode for HORSE, that's brutal. Its 6 games and they only get one episode?Ever since the WSOP made the HORSE final table NLH, ESPN has said they will only be televising the final table for TV. However that is very lame that HORSE is only 1 episode, it should be 2 at the very least especially since all the big names are in it. Harrah's and ESPN has really managed to screw up the WSOP in soo many ways. Link to post Share on other sites

I am pretty upset still that ESPN is airing the ME first this year instead of the preliminary eventswhy do you care what they air first or second? I think the other events must have gotten poorer ratings than the hold'em event in previous years, that really sucks, but it is what it is. Link to post Share on other sites

Whew.ok ok..what i meant the people in RIO and WSOP seemed more into making it made for TV WSOP the the real poker that it is!like it takes them 1 min to flip over the turn and river so the camera's can get in place!!it all seems so staged !and who the fuck asked you anyways Link to post Share on other sites

How many episodes does ESPN plan on making the Main Event this year? Last year it was 12 episodes. I'm guessing 14 or 16 episodes this year? Link to post Share on other sites

Last year it was 12 episodes. I'm guessing 14 or 16 episodes this year?I actually have no idea what days are being aired tonight....I was just saying I was looking forward to seeing what a madhouse it was. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe the ME coverage is 6 weeks. 2 episodes each week would give us 12, same as 2005. Link to post Share on other sites
