No any kind of mixed games or half one thing half the other. I guess they haven't gotten a lot of entries.

I believe the HORSE and SHOE tournaments have recently been won by greats such as Doyle Brunson, Phil Ivey, and Scott Fishman.

Just wasting more bandwidth telling you what you could read in Cardplayer.

On one hand, televised is great for poker because it has increased the number of entries for tournaments.

On the other hand, it's really killed the diversity of tourneys...This yr's 5 star is nothing but NL - pathetic, really.

Wow, that is crap. I think the ME should be HORSE. Screw just HE, and screw TV.

i guess after fischman won it, they decided it wasn't a true test of skill.

if you want to get even more upset you should check out how great the tournament set up looked before they switched to the all NLHE setup. It was beautiful. Very diverse and there were still a bunch of holdem events too
