IMO, they should have aired it free - on ESPN2 or something (or at the VERY least, as a webcast) this year. When people saw how good the live coverage was, I think they'd be much more inclined to pay for it next year.

Had I not seen was I saw last night, I wouldn't have known what I was missing. It was pretty good stuff, I must say. Very well done.

I don't think it's beyond comprehension that ESPN leaked the bug intentionally so that they could evaluate how well it may do in the future for PPV or webcast (while still making some PPV $ from the suckas to cover production costs). I don't think they'd they do it on one of their many 'free' channels as it may cut into their advertising dollars for the normal broadcast.

I wouldn't pay $29.95 (in part because of the logistics of watching it ALL FREAKIN NIGHT), but something like $15 would certainly entice me.

Default well


If I had the 2 days off or whatever I would pay the $30, I just really really enjoyed watching it, when I had to go to bed and then work in the morning I was really bummed out. It was fun trying to figure out what they were doing in each hand.

But $15 sounds nicer to me also
