That is not cool.
They're not being slow. To call this out so quickly is ridiculous. They've been playing for 90 minutes. It's far too small a sample size

They are warning the feature table about speed of play. Saying it's much slower than other 2 tables

The speed of play at the table has been fine in my opinion.

Salas is slightly slow and Ruane was slow on 1 decision early but other than that I don't see it

Seems like it. Couple of unnecessary tanking spots but nothing to warrant that.

a guy just said "i'd really like to see that hand" to Hesp, and he said "i'm not going to show it, you can see it on tv."

Schulman just dropping nuggets left and right. This guy might be the very best in poker TV commentating right now imo.

Before warning the table, they should tell the dealers to deal out the flop turn and river quicker.

Very few people can say "What's your favourite animal of the sea...I'm a dolphin man myself" on a live telecast and get away with it.

The Jason Somerville/Nick Schulman commentary team will be long overdue when it finally debuts, and subsequently takes over.

Think about how awful that would've been had Lon or Norman said that. Shulman can pull it off though

Dealer is getting cue to deal from director. Certainly not on them.

Exactly. The problem isn't tanking, it's just that one table has seen more flops.

The Twitch Darwin Award goes to the doofus who set up a Twitch stream of the PokerGo feed but added @wsop when he tweeted the link.

Um - 6500 to 1 is even money to happen in a field of 6500 repeat players over 2 years.

It's like that thing where the teacher predicts two people in a class of 25 will have the same b-day and everyone freaks out when it happens.
