Re: Jesse May\'s CP blog
Something has been disturbing me from this years WSOP,and Jesse has hit the nail on the head.It is difficult to have respect when you take competition to the level of circus entertainment.And when you consider this is supposed to be the climax to the poker calendar then something has been lost and it is a shame.
Times have changed and the WSOP is now just another tournament.Gets good tv exposure and benefits poker for it.But what the WSOP had,has now been lost.Tradition,respect,awe,mystery.
Now it is records,number of bracelets,number of participants,prizemoney etc.
