The WPT is going down. ESPN will simply crush them.

How is ESPN supposed to do this? They don't seem to have the product.
The only poker they have a contract to televise is the World Series of Poker. They don't even have the Circuit events form 2007 forward and don't seem to have much interest in signing a contract for them. The # of WSOP events being covered have gone down since 2004.
Overall, it seems ESPN is reducing its poker coverage going forward. Does anybody have any data for the # of original hours broadcast by ESPN in 2004, 2005, and 2006?
