CrazyJoe 0 Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 So wtf is with ESPN this year, they pick and choose, make FOUR episodes out of Negreanu's Tunica win and leave over half the circuit events out in the cold and off the TV schedule? I guess we won't be seeing Fidler's accomplishment on TV, i guess it's more motivation to get to another TV final table. Link to post Share on other sites
scottyno 0 Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 4 episodes of 1 event is much better than 4 episodes of 4 events Link to post Share on other sites

chrozzo 19 Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 maybe we'll see him in the ME episodesi just hope Barry Paskin isnt featured again...that guy was ridiculously annoying Link to post Share on other sites
SpiderGuard 0 Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 maybe we'll see him in the ME episodesi just hope Barry Paskin isnt featured again...that guy was ridiculously annoyingAnd every time they show him on TV it just encourages other people to act annoying to get TV time. Kind of like American Idol showing the bad auditions encourages bad singers to go down there. Link to post Share on other sites

FourFlusher 0 Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 It would be better if they showed one hand from the FT, and 50 minutes of Norm Chad standup with Lonnie screaming out the punchlines in the background. Link to post Share on other sites

And put a mike above the table, and use that audio... Link to post Share on other sites
Aerriza 0 Posted August 18, 2006 Share Posted August 18, 2006 I've only seen them play 2 episodes from tunica, both of them of the final table, where there more before that? I thought I haden't missed any (have all poker channels favorited).Also someone said earlier that they will show some of the other circut events after they show the ME, this didn't make any since to me, and I don't know anything about how true it is.

I have the WSOP set to TiVo automatically, and TiVo never even tried to record these episodes. When I looked in the guide, it said something else was on. Link to post Share on other sites

Why?strike when iron is hot, more people are likely to watch the sooner after the actual event it is. Makes sense, I don't have a problem with it, more people are interested in the ME than the preliminaries anyway Link to post Share on other sites
