Default Don\'t expect to watch the final table live

Was down at Binions today, and the word is that the finals will be held upstairs in the bullpen. Friends and family only will be allowed. This is from the floorman at Binion's. I think there are gonna be a lot of pissed off people tommorrow.

pokerchamps.com is advertising that they will be broadcasting it live through their software, so i think that your information is at least moderately incorrect.

I can tell you from personal experience, watching a poker tournament in person is very boring. Better just to stay home and listen to the audio feed, at least then you get some interesting commentary.

They will probably be recreating each hand "live" via the audio play by play. Like Poker Stars did last year.
