PPT Footage

This has been brought up before, but what is the deal with the final table footage(of nine). In Foxwoods, they didn't show eliminations 9th-7th. At Commerce, they showed all eliminations. Then tonight at Bay 101, they show all, but 7th place. Seems kinda weird.

WPTE didn't want to pay overtime for the TV crew so WPTE ordered the TV crew to dismantle the spotlight table set promptly at midnight and WPTE used handheld electronic news gathering (ENG) cameras to videotape the bustouts after midnight.

It makes you wonder why they bother. The future of poker on TV is going to hell in a handcart pretty damn fast what with the TV stations holding sway and what not.

What's hilarious is that Oliver thinks this is an insult.
