Default An open letter to ESPN Original Entertainment:

Dear EOE,

AK versus JJ seven hundred and fifty thousand times constitutes neither poker nor entertainment. An approximate analogy might be, instead of a baseball game, hours of color bars with interspersed flash-cuts of people scoring. Though I remain fundamentally appreciative of your product, I swear on my mother's life if I see someone check their hole cards to find Ace/King or a top four pair one more [censored] time I am going to beat my television into quarks with a sledgehammer. Perhaps you could simply show the graphic representing Ace/King for an hour in front of a black screen, static, or hardcore pornography. This would be cheaper.

Sincerely,

Saddlepoint

I'm also getting bored of the coverage. I'm enjoying Live at the Bike much better.

And it will never get any better until there is a gaming channel(or at least a viable possibility of one) geared to players like us.
