Default Re: Where does TV poker coveage ad money go?

In my opnion the relationship of

Poker Players <- Casino <- TV Network

is very similiar to

Football Player <- NFL <- TV Network

and it would seem in both cases the players are entitled to a share of the revenue.

The difference is that sports teams have unions and are highly organized to make demands.

Even if every "name" player boycotted events there would be plenty of nobodies still buying in. And the tv/poker press would simply begin making new "names"
