slappy 0 Posted July 15, 2006 Share Posted July 15, 2006 The final table winner should be determined by:A judged event on a six point scale with points for technical merit and artistic content.Either that or wang size. Link to post Share on other sites
Jerry 0 Posted July 15, 2006 Share Posted July 15, 2006 WSOP: hey, you want to play in a 50,000 dollar buy in H.O.R.S.E. tournament, where the final table is played NLHE because of tv ratings?Players: OKVarious forum members: Fck that. Its stupid. Link to post Share on other sites
AC BillP 0 Posted July 15, 2006 Share Posted July 15, 2006 I don't care if a bunch of teenagers aren't smart enough to follow all the standard high stakes card games. The tournament is to decide the best player in all 5 games---At the final table however, I think they should rotate through the games until Hmnl starts, and stay with it. That's because position is very important in HM relative to the other games---it evens things out a bit, so the switches (and slow play) don't dramically give one player advantage at short handed change-overs.

simo_8ball 0 Posted July 15, 2006 Share Posted July 15, 2006 you kow those TV watching donkies I was talking about?youre one of themSorry, obviously I need to notch up the sarcasm in my previous post a little higher. Having said that, it was a post suggesting that a HORSE tourney be entirely NLHE, so that should have alerted you that I wasn't being serious. Link to post Share on other sites
SlowPlayedNuts 0 Posted July 15, 2006 Share Posted July 15, 2006 I think it is sad that the WSOP would care more about what makes good TV then what takes good poker. Link to post Share on other sites
Kei 0 Posted July 15, 2006 Share Posted July 15, 2006 It's already been stated in these forums that the idea of NLHE final table was not suggested by ESPN or the WSOP, it was decided by the players.Continue to ***** about how stupid the WSOP and ESPN for doing this, but it wasn't their idea. I guess all the players are the real morons. Link to post Share on other sites
Catur 0 Posted July 15, 2006 Share Posted July 15, 2006 I honestly dont get how they can go from playing H.O.R.S.E to going to all NLHE for the FT, it makes me scratch my head each time, Ive never completely changed the game I was playing in the middle or end of a tournament! Ugggh! SOO DUMB OF ESPN! Link to post Share on other sites

This was one of the biggest issues they had with the WSOP.No sarcasm, reading through yesterday somebody pointed it out in another non-sarcastic post. The players had an issue with the WSOP in general becoming a HE fest, but the HORSE final table was not a huge issue (except for a few players).Or, at least, it wasn't ESPN or WSOP's idea to begin with.
