Re: Where does TV poker coveage ad money go?
The WPT, the EPT, the WSOP and all of the lesser televised tournaments should not pay the players a dime, and in turn the players should see this as their opportunity to seize on the fact that Lyle Berman and his ilk are putting money in their back pockets that rightly should go to the players.
If the poker boom lasts I see it going the same way as baseball did many many years ago. During baseballs inception players we paid very poorly and basicly told that there were lucky to be paid at all. Then many years later the players realized they were providing all the content, without them the game did not exist in the form it was presented to the public.
The guy earlier who was talking about Wheel of Fortune……the participant pool is never ending......no relevance to this topic. He goes on to say that we don’t think like businessmen. Well I would say it depends on what side of the business we are talking about, the player side or the owner side. And I’d finally like to comment on the fact that union destroy most business.......bla bla bla
