No idea, the reportage here sucked big time. I can understand the difficulty, the whole concept of broadcasting a poker game is pretty new, but a little stack size/blind size update every hand or two would have been nice.

Well, Chan made it 5000 on the hand, indicating the blinds were likely in the 1000-2000 range. They show the pot size as about $39,000 and Chan wins. So, lets look at the hand like this:

Stacks: Chan 30,500; Woods 19,500
Blinds 1000-2000
Chan opens for 5K on the button. Woods moves in. Chan calls.

They should really cap the blinds, that goes for all tournaments actually. The blinds should never be so high that you CALL an allin with K3s when the chips are about even.

The good news is that the stacks get deeper in the later rounds.
