Randy Reed 0 Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 Since the action starts tommorow morning and there is live coverage on the internet will you follow it or wait for the TV broadcast?For anyone that doesn't know how this works, play starts Sun Nov 9 at 10 AM and they play till the final 2.Play will resume Mona 10th at 10PM and play till it's over. ESPN broadcasts it at 9 PM Tues.I'm kinda torn. In the past following it live you pretty much got to see every hand unfold, less the hole card cam.By live I mean the usual internet updates. PStars set up a table once to follow the action which was okay. I know WSOP site has a live audio going on and updates.ThoughtsTV you get to see the hole cards but it will be a watered down version and edited.Also if you wait to see it on TV and you come here you will likely see who won from some retard who posts without a spoiler alert.What do you guys think?

No_Neck 0 Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 have you checked out the Bwin site? they seem to be having an EPT style web broadcast. I think I am going to watch that. Not sure though because Sunday is football day... tough choice. Link to post Share on other sites
JoblessBast 0 Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 I'm just gonna watch the ESPN broadcast tuesday night, and stay away from here starting tomorrow, to get the full (commercial) effect. I'm sure someone will spoil it for me one way or another though. Link to post Share on other sites

The WSOP site doesn't specify. Link to post Share on other sites
Flushgarden 0 Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 Some idiot will without a doubt post results without a spoiler warning, so I might as well follow along as its happening. Link to post Share on other sites
Jam-Fly 8 Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 btw, whose everyone's pick to win? I'm going with Chino Rheem Link to post Share on other sites
GWCGWC 83 Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 I'm going to watch it live at the Rio at some point Sunday. Depending on who's in ti, I'll hit it up Monday during the HU match too. If I weren't going to be in Vegas, I'd try to avoid the outcome and watch the espn broadcast. Link to post Share on other sites
Jam-Fly 8 Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 why are they stopping at heads up? I don't get it.If no deal is made, it must so sick, playing heads up for all that money. The time between the end of play and the restart of the heads up match must be crazy. All the thoughts that would go through your head Link to post Share on other sites

I_fold08 1 Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 is there anything other than audio coverage? will there be a video feed that anyone knows of? Link to post Share on other sites
No_Neck 0 Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 Bwin siteI repeat, but I am not sure if it is video, listening to audio is kinda lame. Link to post Share on other sites
Citizen Erased 0 Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 btw, whose everyone's pick to win? I'm going with Chino RheemThere's a discussion already going on about this here Erm... would rather watch it, tbh, but that obviously means not logging on here.Hm... I'll probably hold out as I've known who's won every time I've watched the FT, so would make a nice change. Link to post Share on other sites

Yoda 1 Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 Sunday is def football day and i won't give a crap about this...but it will be tough to avoid finding out the winner till Tue. Even if I avoid FCP I am sure it will be in various other places on the internets. Oh wellz, gonna skip the live stuff and watch the ESPN broadcast and hopefully I can avoid the news.
