To the Producers of the WPT

[Tommy Angelo]

I watched a few WPT shows on TV, when they started. But now I don’t watch them at all. I’d watch if I could play along. But I can’t, because the essential information is not provided.

In order to judge the quality of the betting decisions made by the contestants, and in order think about what I would do in their situations, I must know, as the contestants do, what the pot size is, and what everyone’s stack size is, at all times.

There’s only three pieces of non-personal information. There’s the position, which we can see from home. There’s the cards, which we can see from home. And there's the chip distribution at any given moment, that is, the pot size and the stack sizes, which we’re not allowed to know from home.

Get it right guys. And I’ll watch.
