Good to see progress, but BAD NEWS. Cardplayer has signed for exclusive rights to WPT event coverage.

That solves the fast structure. But will there be more viewers? Prolly not.
There needs to be more 'name' players making the final table. Does this not increase the viewership?
The skewed payoff structure forces players to take early
risk to try for the win. If there were a big money gap between 6th and 7th place, the name players would play
to make the TV final table. Not finish 7th thru 12th
so often.

They still mess up hands all the time. Now I guess I won't really know because I won't have the several other outlets to see the correct information.
