Also, Tony's starting stack is hilarious to look at. What's that.. 6 chips?

They definitely should have colored him down with about 5 racks of black.

The amount of hands they show is terrible when you consider that they had a decent amount of play when they started. I mean even if they just show like 2 or 3 more where a flop is seen.

Interesting how quiet they all are (players), especially compared to the Aruba show.

Hey,what about Ming's tell when he got the aces? Do you think he was doing the psych out with a reverse tell by acting so excited? I thought the subtitles when he spoke was hilarious.

Some of the events have had as few as 80 hands.

It would be nice if they could maybe summarize some of the hands. Wasting time on the 'drama' of someone thinking over a decision is boring and stupid.

Or put the fluff in the middle of a long tank time so that you get some time back:

MS: Will he call here with the two sevens?
VVP: The walking sticks, looking to hit the slot machine on the flop!
MS: Well while we wait for him, let's find out about the ridiculous rug on his head!

...Courtney interviews the rugsmen....

VVP: "And we are back and he has called here with the two 7s. We are on the flop"

I mean the info on the screen is enough to fill anyone in.

I'd rather watch quality players being "boring" than hyper twentysomethings jumping around every time they win a pot.

Harrington playing it by the book. Made the probing bet on the flop, didn't work as Smith called, and check/folded the turn with the second best hand.

Ya. I have it on mute with south park on my tv now. I don't watch the last half of WPT events any more because it's not really poker.
