I sat there and watched a game that was very different than the PLO that I play. The opening few hands made absolutely no sense at all. I couldn't understand what standards those guys were using for starting hands or that they were calling with hands I'd muck in a second. Of course Norman yelling "he has AK suited and two other cards" doesn't help.

As has become typical on ESPN, when the game is not holdem, the typical viewer who has no understanding of the game will be very confused and go watch Seinfeld reruns. They showed so few hands because they has to use the time for such interesting things as the spelling bee, a C movie actress (well sort of an actress) winning the girls only event, lots of interviews of players talking about other players and as always Phil being Phil.
