I believe the number of cameras ESPN has active on the final table is nineteen, each of which is recording for fourteen hours a day. That math doesn't include interview segments and floor coverage. This is me telling you they can not edit 266 hours of footage before extras in 24-48 hours.

I don't believe that. They know when a big hand/knockout takes place. Say...table 22 at 6:43 PM. How difficult is it to go to 6:43 on the table 22 cameras and find that hand? It is not like they have to sit and watch the tapes over and over. CardPlayer and other poker magazines/websites cover the action and document the important hands. Seems like it would be easy to edit them fast when you know the exact time and table they took place.

How many cameras does ESPN have at college football stadiums all over America and they still seem to be able to do a highlight show every Saturday? Rapidly producing a highlight show wouldn't be a problem-- and they could sell the shows later a "a more detailed analysis..."
