I hope this moved back a week so they can give it 2 hours. The other taped 2k NL that is scheduled to air isn't the most stacked final table. Does anyone know for sure if it is/isn't going to get 2 hrs?

On the www.worldseriesofpoker.com site, it mentions two hours for HORSE on ESPN tonight.

But's it's not really HORSE, it's just another NL hold'em final table, right.

I hope they'll show us a FEW non-hold'em hands that led up to this final table. I'm tired of HE-HE-HE everywhere.

75% of the events at the WSOP this year were NL holdem, plus it brings the ratings, what are you going to do. ESPN has never aired a split game.

i dont get it...why are they playing nl at a HORSE FT? or is this not the HORSE event?...

The general public has boners for NLHE.

It's HORSE, but it was Harrah's or ESPN's decision (depending on who you listen to) that decided to make the final table NL.
