Well you have a 50% - 50% chance at being right by stabbing in the dark. But unless you can be more convincing like showing proof then you are just another person posting on the boards. And in the event you are right please save us all the boredom of you coming back and puffing out your chest. Unless that is you can show some compelling evidence of your claim before 12:00 PST on Tuesday.

Solid evidence that there will NOT be hole cards shown (to my dismay)

Go to:

http://sports.espn.go.com/espnradio/...page=pokeredge

Choose the Podcast with the following description (2nd one from the top):

"Phil Gordon updates the poker action with Andrew Feldman halfway through the World Series of Poker."

Go to 24 minutes and 11 seconds into the podcast and Phil clearly states they will not be showing the hole cards. It will be live without delays.

Vote with your measly 20 dollars so they will continue with this broadcast!

Does anyone remember how long it lasted last year? I'm trying to figure out how long I will be completely unproductive on Tuesday.

It's so much better without hole cards shown...it makes you figure out what the players have as opposed to just seeing "okay, this guy has AK and this guy has QQ, looks like they're gonna get it all in here".

Agree 100%...I couldn't stop watching for one minute last year. No hole cards make you play like your at the table and get player tendancies. It's very good stuff.

I have a DVR but there is not enough room to record the entire event, which I would like to do.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can record this to directly to DVD?

Is there a DVR I can go buy with a built in DVD recorder so I can record it directly to DVD?

Other ideas?

Why not delete some stuff off your DVR? If you are under 10 hours of space anyways you are probably in order for some cleaning anyways
