Not to forget why the USPC was canceled on espn? The final table was as exciting as watching paint dry on a wall, even with the limited hands they showed. Poker is meant to be a social game, which most online players really lack by multi tabling all day and all night.

A lot of the "live game" skill comes in finding marks and getting games with them and keeping them entertained. This is where the old lives pros have excelled so well. They've got marks like Guy and Flynt and of course Eli and Sammy and many many more. I'm sure Gabe has got a good game going and he doesn't want some online guys coming and destroying the game.
