Re: ESPN Enhances WSOP Coverage
Does anybody really watch the WSOP for strategic play?
I mean, we see like 1% of all hands played, so besides the obvious silly and good plays we have no way of telling how good some of these hands being played are.
It's entertaining and it's poker, and unlike Gabe and AJ who talk over table talk that I would like to hear, Norm actually makes the WSOP stuff a little more entertaining. It's not deep, insightful comedy, but it's corny enough to be funny and to mock. It obviously also sells to the mainstream, which is a must for ESPN.
