HSP next season idea,

THis idea came from the post on who should be the next internet pro to play in the HSP poker game.

Is it about time that the GSN network changes the High stakes game to PLO?? Lets assume that the poker player watches the show because we are sick of seeing AK vs. 99 shoves in Tournament poker and we want to see more strategy and post flop play, and lets also assume the novice player or person who knows nothing about pokers watches because he/she loves the cash that is flying around in the high stakes game.

what about 400/800 dollar blinds 500K buy in PLO full table.

Omaha i think is becoming better to watch and more fun to the poker public. because the swings can be tremendous

Now i know some critics will say networks won't do it because they will be afraid the novice will not undertand it, but Kaplan is probabally the best commentator around and could easily transition the average public to understand the game. Plus i think people would tune in to see a 3 way all in pot for 1.5 million

Think of how great it would be to see farha or Benyamine rebuy after loosing a 2 mill. pot because his wrap and flush draw missed. Throw in the internet pros and that would be some great TV
