Did you see the WSOP coverage? If you were a newbie poker player, you would think that AQ is nearly unbeatable, and that you'll need to bluff shove with absolutely nothing to get to the final table. You would think that this will lead to more money for good poker players...

You would also think it went very quickly, but Pokernews coverage said it was the longest final table ever.

They show the EPT live online, so you don't see the hole cards. Greg Raymer says it's a great way to see what it is really like to play a real live tournament. The way they edit down these tournaments for tv coverage makes it look like an online game. No wonder people don't have much of a clue when they play live for the first time.
