I was just looking at the WSOP schedule on ESPN and IF I saw correctly, they are not showing either Doyle's win or Johnny Chan's win. I thought they would show one if not both. Again, I might have saw incorrectly.

the band in your avatar is terrible

They own you.

I'd be shocked if they didn't show at least Doyle's win.

Why would they show either one? They're both just lucky anyway. I would rather just see 24/7 coverage of Moneymaker and Varkonyi.

That's pure entertainment.
Varkonyi's wife is a better player then him, even Mike Matusow said so.

That band is terrible and owns nothing but a couple of gay sex toys and some KY.

They own you.

The two tournaments were never intended to be aired. ESPN and the WSOP has already decided which tournaments were to be filmed before the WSOP began. Those 2 were not part of the filming...

The ESPN schedule was set before the event started. They may have some footage of them winning once ESPN saw them get to the end that they may parcel into some other episodes, but not all of the final tables were taped, which might have been the events they won.

I said it first...lol

They have pretty much every major final table on tape I think. They took time off in order to set up the Ladies event on the TV table because Tilly was there. Again like you said though, doesn't mean they will air it.

How do they own? THEY HAVE ONE ALBUM! And they play a bit part in a corporate scheme. So go to Hot Topic and get all their Merch. Im sure Sony or whoever owns them appreciates it.

Need. New. Avatar. ASAP

They have two albums and
They own you.

Who the hell are they?

Who the hell are you?

Uriah Heep, but you can call me Mr. Heep.

That sucks. I was really looking forward to seeing Doyle win the tying bracelet. O well.

Someone tell me who this damn band avatar is....
I googled "bands who have frontmen who wear stupid ties" but no matches...

It would be funny if the band's name was "they own you"

Abbott and Costello style...

Seriously though... who the f are they.

Why are you knocking a perfectly good band like my chemical romance without even knowing that they have two albums for christ's sake? i agree the Hot Topic element of their fan base blows, but jeez...that's like when someone here insults the skill of a professional in a thread for making some weird play without even knowing the context.

I am 75% sure that they found a way to televise Doyle's win. Last minute subsitution or something. I am not positive however.

Dont know about Chan. if ESPN didnt figure out a way to make it work they are complete jacque a$$e$

I'm not surprised, the coverage this year sucks. How can you show a 6-8 hour final table in 60 minutes - commercials? Anyone wanna start a Poker Network with me?

I agree that ESPN's final table coverage leaves some things to be desired. They did not properly represent how impressive Eric Seidel's win was last week at all.

But really exactly how would you do it better? Make the shows longer?? That would cut their viewing audience in half at least probably by as much as 75%. The hour format is perfect for everyone but us poker snobs on poker forums.

We know the deal, it is best to keep everyone else in the dark. ESPN does the best they can with a difficult situation. Other than stale, lame ex-wife jokes from Norman Chad I am perfectly happy with ESPN's coverage. it is easy to criticize, hard to come up with a better idea.

I know that the majority of people watching love people saying "all in", but I loved watching the turning stone event a few years ago where you could watch every hand.
The ex-wife jokes are getting VERY old.
But you are right about keeping people in the dark who don't know any better. :-)

I also would have liked to see events like Stud H/L, but again you can't go all-in so it won't be shown on TV.

the band really does suck.

Hey, I agree. Turning stone was great. But it is great for us. Not the majority. ESPN is doing the right thing. We will all know on FCP if ESPN's telecast is misleading.

And to be honest I like good poker but.....I enjoy hearing them say all-in too.

I'll save the other guy some time and say-

"They own you."


What a moron, can't you come up with anything else you f'n mouth breather?

I am forced to give my normal response to any online argument, even if it is to a cool person.

They own you.

My chemical romance sucks. The guy wears make up and shlt. And he sounds something like a bltch.

Why say anything else when 3 little words gets people so upset that they call me a "mouth breather."

why listen to my chemical romance when i can listen to the guy the lead singer is stealing HIS WHOLE IMAGE FROM ....robert smith and the cure......they own my chemical romance....

i saw the title of this thread and thought everyone was talking about how 2005 WSOP main event champ Joseph Hachem (sp?) stiffed the dealers by not tipping after his win. apparently his buddy convinced him not to.

-EDITED MY DUMBASS TYPO OUT-

Wow, he already defended his title? They must have held the 2006 WSOP ME in 2005 right after the 2005 one ended.

damn i guess they do own me :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry:

Haha. Just giving you a hard time. Welcome to the boards.

really you mean it? you like me? you really like me?
YAY and stuff

err yeah

Convinced him not to? Did he go back and give a better tip???

umm no his buddy convinced him not to tip. he was goin to but now he risked the wrath of karma.

The girl with the black hair is buckin futt ugly.

(guessing you're talking about my avatar) That's because it's a guy oh and
They own you.

No you just suck at life

I'm guessing you like MCR Jason?

at least the look is original...oh wait it's not ..the lead singer stole his whole deal from robert smith....

Yeah I appreciate good music. Don't be jealous because a guy who wears make-up makes more money than you. I mean green day has been around for a while...

Jason likes them, that's enough...argument over because he ownz you all.




Please don't take my "They own you" comments seriously. It's just something I do to get people riled up and it works for some reason.

And nothing they do is revolutionary.

VH1 behind the music sucks.

rumor has it green day is doing an accoustic version of kumbya..... im shivering with anticipation...

yes, doyle's win is being shown for a one hour episode. THey moved the NL final table that was to be filmed when they saw the lineup and didn't want to possibly miss another historic FT win by a legend. THe final table also was loaded with Layne Flack, Doyle, Jason Lester, Scotty Ngyuen, and I forget the other two right now, but it was a real good final table
