All the hype.....and then

I don't know how many of you watch poker on TV but I watch a little bit.

And this year the WSOP and ESPN decided to have the final table stop play back in June and wait until Nov 9 to finish the tournament.

Okay sounds cool. This way there is no reporting who won and ruining it for those that want to watch.

I watched a little but of the tournament throughout the past couple months but wasn't that interested in it.

And I was intending to watch the final table to see who won and the atmosphere that was created by the layoff.

But what did ESPN do?

The EXACT thing they were trying to avoid by delaying the final table!

Monday night on PTI the guys mentioned who the final two players were.

And then

AND THEN!

On Tuesday morning (the day they were going to show the final table) they had ON THE BOTTOM LINE ALL DAY.....

the winner of the WSOP Main Event.

Yes...the same network that wanted more viewers for the main event so they pushed the final table BACK about 4 months......

ANNOUNCED THE WINNER BEFORE THEY AIRED THE SHOW!!

I still watched but why push it back 4 months if you are just going to tell us who wins early anyway?
