It looks like ESPN is milking this poker craze as they made this season incredibly long. We will have to wait a LONG time for the final event, and what would one more episode be with event #44! THat seriously sucks.

ANyhoo, take a look

I am disappointed about multiple pros not making it to the final table. However, how probable is it for a poor, mediocre, or even a good player to make it past like 6000 people. In my opinion, someone got either IMPOSSIBLY lucky or we have to give these guys our respect. IMO, these guys played some quality poker for a long time.

I'm looking forward for Tuesday. I will be off Tuesday so I will be watching the first broadcast for sure. Sucks we have to wait like 4 months to see the main event though. Also really sucks they did not televise TP event.

I personally dont think ESPN is milking the poker craze, they are showing 2 WSOP events a week up to the main event.

Its just that they show all the main event action and this years is so big that its going to take forever.
