Aria getting their money's worth out of this Antonio sponsorship.

Feels like he's been on the TV table the entire tournament.

Did ESPN/Harrahs outlaw PokerStars gear at some point? Stars used to sponsor a grip of players every year towards the end of the tournament, but in recent years nobody has been wearing the jackets/patches ala Cada, Eastgate, Schwartz, Duhamel, etc.

A dying breed indeed. Wonder if any mullets played in this year’s main event. I believe they are also an endangered species.

Cantu calling that small extra amount with only 990K behind and K6 may have been worse

Why don’t they use those table down cameras as opposed to these ones which always seem to miss a card

So I did some research and came across a 2017 article that interviewd Lon.

Basically he said before he started commentating he knew basically nothing of poker, only p,aged a coup,r times as a kid and had never even been to a casino in his life prior to commentating. I can link the article but not sure if allowed.

Not to stir up the hate on Lon again, but I think both sides of the issue would find this interesting.

Not a huge surprise. He was the ESPN play by play voice for their "niche" sports in the early 2000s. Billiards, fishing, poker, strongest man competition and others. It just so happened that Poker out-boomed the others and became what he was known for.

Is skin suit same as guy who was railing her and we thought was stalkerish? If so this point i think he is either boyfriend or backer, and I’d lay money on backer. Obv PokerNews needs to do its job

Linking that type of article is not only allowed but encouraged!

Yup. He said he did some BS event with Gabe and next year ESPN asked him to do it again, and that was the Moneymaker event.

Honestly sooo many ppl owe Moneymaker it’s rediculous
