Re: Main Event-- has the sport jumped the shark??
I enjoyed the entire WSOP series.
I thought they picked good hands to spotlight. I liked the commentators. I'm not such a fan of the personal stories, but I could tolerate them.
And as for the antics at the final table, I thought they behaved like people playing for huge sums of money the likes of which they'd never imagined possible before getting to that final table where the blinds were big enough and the stacks even enough that it could have gone any number of ways. At some point the end of a tournament boils down to aggression and luck. And it was nice that the most aggressive ended up getting the most lucky. Imagine that.
