Default Re: Today\'s WSOPC Caesars Las Vegas Live Coverage

Mini review:
- Get the basics right first: they don't bother with play-by-play! If I can't follow what's going on nothing else matters. Why are the commentators even there if they're not doing play-by-play? So start doing it, or else eliminate the commentators and mike the table well so I can follow it myself.
- They need automated hole-card recognition. It's a must for live broadcasts, and I gather it's cheaper for taped shows too. They just aren't getting the hole card info that well. And add position info to the onscreen graphics too.
- Yeah, Howard David may be the worst poker announcer I've ever heard. Wilson is ok.
- The chip-stack info on the web page isn't updating accurately.
- The video quality isn't as good as Stars's EPT Live.

Overall, I think it's pretty bad, and I stopped watching. I'm going to watch the WPT on my DVR instead.

Originally, this was to be a test only. When it goes live for the WSOP, it will be HD quality....the pipeline wasn't in place for this event.

That was the first run....with absolutely no practice and it originally wasn't suppose to be viewed by the public. I'm not sure why it was made available to the public.

Overall, not a bad test run for the WSOP.....imo.
