Default Are we watching all the action on the WPT?

I'm wathing another WSOP episode and it's kinda lame watching just the all-in hands. You basically know what's gonna happen.

In the wpt episodes, are we watching all of the hands of the final table or do they cut and edit as well? They show a lot of blind steals and hands that don't even see a flop, but do they edit?

Except for the first hand which they always show and sometmes when someone is restealing on a bluff (THAT'S JUST POWER POKER, YOU JUST GOTTA ADMIRE THIS GUY'S MOXIE. VERY INTERESTING PLAY LET'S SEE IF IT WORKS OUT FOR HIM!), the WPT never shows blind steals. Although coverage is ten times better than WSOP shows they still edit out a lot of hands.

You're seeing about 88 minutes of a final table that often lasts 4-6 hours. You're only seeing the tip of the iceberg.
