Is ONE new hour per week all we get from ESPN?
 
I thought they were doing 2 new hours per week. My listings show repeats at 7 and 8, and 1 new episode at 9.

And a re-run of Tilt at 10.

Great.

WSOP Broadcast Schedule
The remaining circuit event episodes will only be an hour long. After that ESPN will be airing two new WSOP episodes a night.

One hour 9-player table episodes won't be popular here.

...and will lead to a ton of threads such as - "Why did this player make such a donkey play with this hand?"

10 hours of poker distilled down to 10 or 15 televised hands. Can't really get a feel for how the game was played.

Maybe they didn't have enough content due to stack sizes to stretch it to two hours.

P.S. The episode this week is totally awful. I think there were 3 flops that were actually played. Everything else is all-in and call style. (The epsiode is available on-line from ESPN, the link is in this thread)

You guys act surprised. Every 2004 WSOP episode was basically all-in hands or major clashes. It's tv poker not real poker.
