crancspanc....great post, loved reading your take on "the poker boom" and the future of the game...

the flip-side of your argument would be that there are certain poker stars who have realized that raking pots will only take you so far...I assume they are convinced that putting themselves in front of the camera is another form of income...

self-promotion, sponsorship deals, tv commercials, magazine articles, etc is replacing 14hour sessions of a juicy poker game where you could earn big money

Not a bad point, this can explain some of it for sure.
