Boski has tens of thousands of viewers, the player pool is not small.
I can clear this air a little bit.
When I was discussing editing with Jeff it seemed to me that he was making it clear that he does enjoy vlogging and he didn't have any resistance to vlogging based on people adjusting to his play b/c of the vlogs. It's that the actual act of vlogging is time consuming and also distracting. He uses all his break time doing spots for the vlog, he has to remember chip stack shots, bag n tag shots etc etc. was that shot blurry? Is the tournament director giving me a funky eye about my snapping shots? These are all thoughts that he has to deal with when vlogging and I agree that in a tournament that is too much extra to have to deal with when making the money is the prime objective.
It's fortunate that he enjoys the medium enough to keep vlogging outside of MTTs but it really just doesn't make sense for a MTT player to be vlogging when he laid it out like that and I think that makes sense.
