I'd love to know how much Lon and Norm make to do these broadcasts, doesnt seem like ESPN can justify paying them much, wonder if they have to have full time jobs throughout the year.

Seems like I recall Lon saying he was in real estate or insurance but I dont know where or if I really heard this

It was 7 minutes according to Lon. He called and won.

He actually is a mortgage banker and I think still practices while not commentating.

Altman had opened cutoff and Jensen called. Altman check-called 115,000 on the flop and 315,000 on the turn. On the river, Altman checked and Jensen bet 810,000. Altman shoved all in for Jensen's remaining chips, just over 2.9 million.

Altman AAs and Jensen 108 hearts.

Hey what’s the consensus here on tanking? Obv these spots s are serious as tourney gets deeper. But even a 6 minute tank is 5% of the level, and that’s on one street.

As a player I respect giving time, but that def affects your EV. Is there a certain time b4 the floor calls time?

If a player is tanking for an hour [?] and the rest of the table are happy as they want to ladder past a bubble/etc

The floor still won't make a call?
