nutonflop 0 Posted July 7, 2005 Share Posted July 7, 2005 there were rumors last year that you can watch the final table in real time via an internet poker room. anyone know if you that happened or if you can do it this year? Link to post Share on other sites
RayPowers 0 Posted July 7, 2005 Share Posted July 7, 2005 Last Year PokerStars did it by mimicing the final table on one of their tables, and it was pretty choppy, but still neat. I have no idea if anyone if planning on doing the same this year. Link to post Share on other sites
JacKingOff_suit 0 Posted July 7, 2005 Share Posted July 7, 2005 Damn it, I was having high hope when I clicked on this thread. Link to post Share on other sites
insano 0 Posted July 7, 2005 Share Posted July 7, 2005 As many cameras that are in the room right now you would think SOMEONE would offer a live feed. Such BS that we don't have our every need catered to. I'm pissed. :-) Link to post Share on other sites

slash 0 Posted July 7, 2005 Share Posted July 7, 2005 I watched it on some British site last year. Forget the name, but I think I might have found a link to it on internettexasholdem.com Link to post Share on other sites

insano 0 Posted July 7, 2005 Share Posted July 7, 2005 I know, I'm just saying. Someone should really get a live feed going. I would watch it. Link to post Share on other sites
DrunkAces 0 Posted July 7, 2005 Share Posted July 7, 2005 The real crime is that we all have to wait until October to watch it. That's ridiculous!!!! Link to post Share on other sites
nutonflop 0 Posted July 7, 2005 Author Share Posted July 7, 2005 I know, I'm just saying. Someone should really get a live feed going. I would watch it.true that, even a rail bird could boot leg it onto their site. whoever does would have the most popular blog online for that day Link to post Share on other sites

And anyone know if they are doing it again?They added a table to the tournament area that you could spectate. I remember they talked about it on IRC for a long time, then had a bunch of issues, and finally were able to get it rolling. Personally, I took comfort in the fact that a poker site was having so many problems inserting a fixed deck of deals into a table. :PRay Link to post Share on other sites

MarcBrown 0 Posted July 7, 2005 Share Posted July 7, 2005 My take is this.........I don't think espn would allow any live TV footage to be aired prior to their coverage at a later date. Does anyone agree? Link to post Share on other sites
insano 0 Posted July 7, 2005 Share Posted July 7, 2005 Yea, thats exactly why it won't happen. ESPN is paying big money to be the only orgainzation with the rights. Link to post Share on other sites

Does anyone agree?again... if you read the thread, this isn't a live tv feed. it's the final table represented as an online table. Link to post Share on other sites
