ESPN is dropping the ball
ESPN had a year to brainstorm ideas for the coverage of the WSOP. They knew they were going to jack up the number of shows and events. They also know that poker has exploded this year. But they have done NOTHING to improve their coverage over last year. Some could say it is worse. Why can't they tell me the stack sizes? Where is the pot size. Why not a ticker saying what hand number we are on (so we know we just missed three orbits) and where the blinds are. I am no TV exec, but these ideas came to me 30 seconds after thinking about it. Maybe I am being picky. Am I alone in this thinking???
