You can spend 11 months arguing and explaining to people how poker is not a game of luck and then WSOP month comes...and the ME comes.... and short term luck makes few more idiots millionaires.
It is very annoying for a Pro or a semi-pro player that spends countless hours studying the game to watch nonsense like this.
However...this year with the introduction of the prayer at the poker table accompanied with the "Hallelujah choir" in the background and few random "make me a believer" licks all I can say with 100% certainty is that the 2007 WSOP ME-FT is the worst poker spectacle I`ve ever seen and I doubt anything will top it with decades to come.

This is by far one of the better posts I've read on here.
For a game that involves lying, deception, and gambling......there sure are a LOT of Jesus freaks who play.
Asking Jesus/God to help you hit a card/hold up is almost like trying to get money from an insurance company. You know they are probably there, but they 'aint listening and you 'aint gonna see none of it.
I remember watching this live and saying to myself, "I hope Jesus Christ himself goes down to Jerry and tells him, 'Hey, a*shole, does it look like I'm the one dealing and shuffling the cards? Pray to the dealer, not me. I have enough prayers to answer and your just going to have to get in line behind the Cubs and Indians fans like everyone else'."
Although I will lol when one of those "Armageddon Preachers" you see on the corner handing out pamphlets in any of the major cities in America holds up a sign that says, "Jesus Christ is Coming! End of the World, One Time!"
