Default Re: Negreanu Criticizes the WSOP \'s one-dimensional lineup

Well, the casino's prerogative is to make money, and Hold'em is where the money is right now

Well, my point was kind of the opposite of that--yeah there's more money in hold 'em, but the money goes wherever the ESPN cameras go, so it's really up to Harrah's and ESPN to manage the popularity of various forms of poker.

The WSOP is 6 weeks of action. Their bottom line wouldn't be too drastically affected by the replacement of 1 or 2 hold 'em events with a specialized mixed-game event or two.
