They are showing a collection of Donk's and Farzad Bonyadi.....instead of showing two of the most compelling tourney's of the WSOP:

Johnny Chan's 10th Bracelet win.....and his HU battle with the UNABomber....

AND

Jennifer Tilly winning the woman's event....

I wanted to see Tilly play to see if she was donking her way to the win or if she does have skilllllzzzz.......she did beat 600+ other hoes you know....


ESPN sucks ass...they don't have a brain in their collective little heads.

I agree, these telecasts have been bad all year, they should really just pick one event each week and show it for two hours, so that the telecast has some fluidity and not just an all in fest with KK vs. QQ every time.

I think this episode portrays what it was like there this whole month. The atmosphere and everything and just the amount of people there playing and watching.

it makes sense..

they chose before hand to show the NL event.

they later realize that they screwed up by missing 3 of the best stories they could show:
the unabomber (others love him)
chan's 10th
jennifer tilly


so as a result we get sub par coverage on all touranment involved.

not too defend espn's coverage ( because all you see for the most part are all-ins), but they picked the events in advance and were scrambling to get Johnny and Phil to the featured table.

this first episode should at least show people that bad beats happen live and not just online.


This episode was awful though.....it was like a retard festival...the crowd was annoying....what was up with that guy in the steelers jersey??? he looked like he was having a fit...weird stuff.
