I agree with this. I watch much less poker on TV then I used to. Of course, I don't represent everyone, but I think watching NL poker tourneys over and over gets a little dry. Especially since you could just do play one yourself fairly easily for very little money. [/ QUOTE ] I agree with most of this. I differ in that I play limit ring games, so there's even less appeal to these TV tournaments from my vantage point. |

Here's what I see
2002 wcoop $1000: Total Prize Pool: $238,000 2003 wcoop $1000: Total Prize Pool: $891,000 2004 wcoop $2500: Total Prize Pool: $2,107,500 2005 wcoop $2500: Total Prize Pool: $3,735,000 Same with the WSOP. Poker has a lot of slowing down to do before it fades. |

Instead of seeing 80-100% annual growth, online poker is down to 30-40% annual growth.
Yes it is slowing growth, but this happens with any industry and those are darn strong numbers still. |
