ESPN.com chat with Erick Lindgren

[ligastar]

Yes! They actually asked my question to Erick!

Greg (Atlanta, GA): What are your thoughts on the WPT's policy to increase the blinds for the televised final tables? It seems like all the play is taken out when the money gets biggest because of this policy.

Erick Lindgren: (4:00 PM ET ) It seems that the people at home really like to see the all-ins. Coupled with the fact that the WPT doesnt want to pay overtime for its workers, its led to that structure. Its a shame to play 4 days of post flop poker and then have it all decided by 5-6 hours of all-in poker.
