Default what the hell

OK so im watching the HORSE final table from 2006 which they just show NL holdem... why the hell was It NL Holdem it should be Limit... NL would ruin the structure of the tourney leaves players with odd amounts for betting at the other limit games... I'm confused

I assume it was because ESPN was upset that there wasn't enough NL holdem on tv, and would only broadcast HORSE final table if they made it NL.

The entire final table is nothing but NLHE. It was the same way last year. ESPN messed up the tournament to appease the public. I'm surprised the players never put up a fuss about it.

This year's FT was HORSE, not NL hold 'em. '06 was NL. I'm pretty sure it was changed mainly because the players put up a fuss.

Glad you watched it this year. There wasn't one hand of NL holdem played at this event.

I dunno, even if it was just NL, it was still a pretty good table to watch, probabally the best to watch NL table ever
