Re: Do ME final tables usually last that long?
Somehow I knew the topic of changing the wsop format just because not enough pros made the final table would come up. You mean to tell me you weren't impressed with how well the pros did? Alot of pros did very well even in this enormous field which was enough to prove to me they still hold out strong regardless the fields.
Matusow, raymer, ivey, flack, lederer, watkinson, juanda... and most of "those" players nobody had heard of until ESPN introduced them to you. Matusow wasnt the only player at the final table who could be consired "pro" but since he's the only recognizable one it seems that way.
At next year's wsop you'll be recognizing names from this years wsop and hoping they do well too... why? because tv creates the player's popularity.. not the other way around.
