I was told that this is the way that the WSOP works now because of TV. Seriously?
Everthing on TV is overly dramatized, especially "breaking" news!
Speaking of 15 minutes of fame....The fans in the gallery should only be allowed to scream their friends name once and then sit down and shut up.
I don't get all of the gushing over the supposed "great play". It's heads up. Aren't they supposed to be aggressive? Bluffy? Etc. How come these guy's are geniuses when they pull off a bluff but not considered idiots when they whiff? How does it take so long to call the river when you have a fairley strong hand, there are a bunch of missed draws, and your opponent is bluffy and you'll still have plenty of chips left if you lose? Do these guy's have to tank every single hand even if they are obviously not gonna play?
Speaking of soccer.....If the US had no oher sports and everybody played soccer, could you imagine guy's like Lebron, Westbrook, JJ Watt, Von Miller playing on the US team....Championship! And instead of the ridiculous fake injuries there would be very real damage caused by these beasts.
