Default Re: \"Official\" WSOP ME Broadcast on ESPN thread (9/12) (Days 4-6)

"People who call others cheats and not dropping it knowing it'll be on TV are worse than whatever word you just used."

I'm just a huge believer in the whole "sticks and stones" thing. Not saying what Phralad did was cool, but that I thought Lissandro's reaction was a good degree more out of line.

You'd think the World Wide Leader could afford some editors skilled in the ways of using existing footage to make a story compelling.

You didn't think that tonight's episodes were compelling?

Wasn't that douchebag Prahlad's comment about playing more hands than Doyle Brunson straight out of that ESPN series "Tilt"?

lisandro threatened prahlad after prahlad had left the table and was having a "private" conversation away from the table. if you can't speak to a tournament director away from the table about an issue that concerns you without being physically threatened, there's something wrong.

Seconded. I don't know anything about general tournament protocol, but I am <u>beyond</u> shocked and appalled that no penalty was given to Lissandro for this. I actually am a lot less interested in ever playing in this tournament (or any live tournament which would not give a penalty here) because of this.

pull your panties our of your ass, some of you people are just complete little girls.

Ah, so you're the portion of the WSOP coverage audience at whom the Milwaukee's Best Light commercials are targeted. Nice to meet you.

I think they were potentially compelling for the wrong reasons, because ESPN is manipulating situations to suit their coverage.

These eps probably aren't the best example, but the fact that they did stuff like reshoot Doyle's exit is just kinda sad.

...wait technologic you made the FT? what's your name? Nice job.

-And before anyone says anything to me about not knowing what the hell is going on, I was away for a couple months with virtually zero access to the outside world while the ME was going on, so I guess I missed it.

I thought Prahlad was hilarious. Why does anyone take him seriously anyways? Now Lisandro on the other hand...
