WSOP 2011 Main Event FINAL TABLE Live Part 1

[luckyyouwtflol]

Look at these stars shine...

[LibrasHP]

Is there an edited version of the final table available?

[mackintorche]

People noise is ....... absolutely horribly.

[JironCFC]

like wtf do the audience watch ?

[russkanteddybear]

i think the format is nice.. lets you test your reads =)

[Alex4GZUS]

WSOP just lost the majority of their viewership with this new format. Nice one guys.

[Fuukle]

Those fans came here after FC barcelona's match

[T3vans]

im guessing it was shown live and seeing cards could help cheats..

[MeAlexMartin]

They have RUINED!!!! this final table!! Half the attraction to this final table show besides the great poker was about the atmos in the old venue (it was rowdy but classy and quiet during play!) screaming morons the whole game is ridculous!! No hole cards is a nice idea but if you wanna watch without knowing stick a sticker on the TV/Screen... the rest of us enjoy watching the Hole cards and how the hands are played!! Morons!! they could have delayed it by an hour and still stopped cheating...

[TheFogey17]

@MeAlexMartin it is live you idiot watch the highlights if you want to see the cards

[MeAlexMartin]

@TheFogey17 yes i know, i watched it live..i was saying they could have easily kept the format that we've all come to enjoy on the live event if they'd delayed it.

And the formats change issues stand! idiots screaming all game long, different table set up just not the same

and why does everyone on youtube have to throw an insult in with a comment like "you idiot" lol if you're not a pro poker player and you didn't go to yale you're not in a position to call me an idiot...keyboard mashing monkey

[PeterRoeder31]

Lol, "a mathematical player". If you played "mathematical no-limit hold-em" you would lose every time.

[Wbrism]

"The WSOP Main Event - The only tournament that matters"...please dont lie to ppl on TV before the show has even started.

[karatasos22cm]

What the fuck is with all the noise?



[mrkiky]

the fucking bullshit is this? If they don't show the cards what the fuck am I supposed to watch? "Bounahra raises, O'Dea reraises. Bounahra folds. O'Dea takes some chips" Wow that's just brilliant! Fucking interesting.

[robgalbenu]

if the final table is on november 9 how was this uploaded on the 7th??

[chiano91]

@robgalbenu i hope you're not serious

[dylanvax]

ITALIANS PLAY IT BETTER:

Quest'anno vedrete due SURPRISES!!!!!

The future is NOW

[vasyasol]

so sad to see bunch of randoms at the final table :*(

[Pirate44444]

@vasyasol Ben Lamb isn't a random.

[vasyasol]

@Pirate44444 not he isnt but he is not some one i enjoy to watch play

[stieeel]

anybody knows the song played under the introduction at 4:43?? so dope

[slopebaby]

im sorry but this is so boring to watch without seeing the cards

[icanadian18]

I will make a final table in this tournament 1 day. I'm 17.  Four more years till i can take a shot.

[KingFrej]

Ben Pig

[JohnWelsch]

I think Staszko is the best of them. He is as quiet as a ninja and is always making chips. If you they were to play a million tables, I think he would have the most chips at the end. He is like some super computer, calculating the best bang for the bug all the time and he is getting that. I doubt anyone can read him.

[WarmTurkeyandGravy11]

The 8 or 9 Sam Holden wigs in Sam's rail are so cool... Who sais world class poker is statistics aggression and bluff only ?... The smartest players on the globe have plenty of good humour at the same time...

[WarmTurkeyandGravy11]

Again ...Norman  Chad ,Lon MacEachern ,and "The Magician),...Antonio Esfandiari are superb !.. .. Chad's GREAT recognition of each of "The Final Nine's " home cities and home-countries was SO very thoughtful and gentlemanly ...GREAT STUFF from a great announcer,.. THANK YOU ...ESPN,The Rio Hotel AND the Nevada Gaming Commission..

[Puppy41H]

I don't know guys but this WSOP seems to not have much feeling at all.

There's no magic, there's no nostalgia. It just feels like some regular final table of some other tournament.

I loved watching all WSOPs.

[kvnd7331]

i love not seeing the cards u have to think about what they have, and u can see them after the hand anyway so i dont see why anyone cares

[aputnoky0522]

i'd love to sit there w/ pocket Qs...weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[askingroyal]

i cant believe we dont even see the cards!!! What a bunch of f**** idiots, really! i m so pissed

[russbr09]

@askingroyal because this was filmed live

[Stoneyguy100]

I Have Watched the Main Event 23 hours!!!!!

ANd then i can´t see the cards!!!!!!

[AntoineKill3r]

Heinz's hot

[Melankolia76]

can i find a episode with cards?

[russbr09]

@Melankolia76 if the final table wasn't filmed live

[WarmTurkeyandGravy11]

Much felicitations to Lon MacEchearn (god..! I can't spell ! )..and Antonio Esfandiari ("the magician " ) calling this 2011 WSOP Final Table.! ESPN's coverage ALWAYS entertains and informs and adds to our poker knowledge ! Very classy calling ,interviews ,humour, and we LOVE Norman Chad's genius promotion of poker to the entire world...

[WarmTurkeyandGravy11]

Norman Chad performed a WONDERFUL job of recognizing the home countries of each of the final nine..!... ESPN's coverage rules all poker ..! Worldwide !...POKER HAS BECOME THE WATCHED SPORT OF CHOICE ,TALKED ABOUT ALL DAY LONG AT MY WORKPLACE,here in Canada, the USA and around the world.

[dumbnetworks]

WHERE ARE THE FUCKIN CAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARDS?????

[russbr09]

@dumbnetworks it was filmed live the nevada gaming comission wouldn't allow the hole cards to be shown live

[TheKirlek]

¡QUE UN TIRO! 39:11 JAJJA STASZCO ESO ES HABILIDAD

[ryanetrbass]

not showing the cards is sooooo lame. Not even fun to watch

[Kostamankocke]

you guys are all bunch of fucking slaves

[MrKeysCrete]

@Kostamankocke Your kidding yourself if you think you arn't too buddy

[bandet888]

Why did they change the format - not showing the cards untill the hand is over? I would like to see how the players are playing their hand during play.

[PjotrSpot]

@bandet888 This is the live-streaming broacast as said in the beginning of the game. The dubbed version with Lon and Norman isn't up here yet.

[russbr09]

@bandet888 because the final table was filmed live and the nevada gaming comission wouldn't allow the tournament show the hole cards live at the final table

[IproductionsI]

@bandet888 they first realease the video without them showing the cards, cause it takes time to edit. after that they release the one where you can see the cards. this is the old version

[bandet888]

@IproductionsI I realize that now which also explains why Norman Chad is not in the video

[Janozzzy]

@bandet888 that's for security reasons(keep the game fare), I know it sucks...

[euKidSquirrel]

@bandet888 personally, I prefer how it works here now.. It is fun to try and put them on a hand as it plays out.

[eddy87su]

@bandet888 hmm.. what part of live don't you understand?

[bandet888]

@eddy87su I get it now. I was just unable to watch the WSOP main event this year because I lost my cable. I was just trying to surf youtube for final table videos. I understand nw that this is before they edited it and have Norman Chad. I do feel a little silly in my other comment.

[yellowmellowful]

@bandet888 because they were filming live so they didnt want someone telling the players what cards the other players have

[TheFogey17]

@bandet888 its live

[bandet888]

@TheFogey17 I realize that now.

[DeathBySlushPuppy]

@bandet888

This is the live show where they do not show the hole cards.

[StonedRhino1990]

@bandet888 I believe there are two reasons, one to protect the 'integrity of the game' and secondly and I suspect more importantly so you can test your own poker skills and try and read a finalist.

[ashton77]

Going back to that jj gienntti all in hand and ben lamb called him for about 1/3 of his stack with k-9--k9 knowing gmans short stacked and not playing pretty much any hands for an hour or so. Lamb HAS to know gman has a good size pair or a min. big ace when he finally made his move and this guy is player of the year? Just goes to show you that any few million players around the world that could afford to enter these big money tourneys would wipe the floor with vs this player of the year donkey.

[BCObozeman]

great commentary and great reads by Antonio Esfandiari

[0210mick]

bad poker

[realityisenough]

all the people talking shit about the main event; these players beat 6000+ people, so STFU

[blinkmefx]

LOL at what the main event has become. it's more of a spectacle than a game these days. sad.

[llubaka]

what to phil ivey and etc.

[PlaygroundPolitician]

esfandiari =)

[sh1tp1e]

i hate those stupid idiots singing that song. STFUUUU

[RUSOLVER]

Which channel does WSOP airs on?

[OV33RDRIVE]

@bloodlshelf - 'Whole cards' lol

[MrStarbumps]

Props to Antonio Esfandiari commentating and reading Martin Staszko and Bounahra hands; "ace rags vs. a pair of 8's on the turn"

[bloodishelf]

Is there a non-love part too? where we can actually see the whole cards? like in the rest of the freaking tournament

[minevittu23]

jeez i wish i could mute the crowd, its fucking annoying :S

[dereksbooks]

Aussie, Aussie, Aussie!

[addy1231]

You call this a Final Table, what happened to the real players. Ivey, Durrr, Greenstein . This is like watching the World cup Final between : Belize and Ukraine!!

[djpj1111]

wish they would use the old theme song...

[MyCoolrunnings]

stu unger really would destroy these guys and ivey...

[jolu1392]

yo si me chingo a kara scott

[justTVsk]

GOOOO STASZKO

[votefan]

LMAO@ HOLDEN WIGS

[jimmybigcockyou]

WSOP SUCKS FUCKING ASS NOW WTF

[let88it88be]

BOOOO. Why is Norman Chad not in the commentary?

[mickmon]

@let88it88be because Antonio Esfandiari knows what he's talking about..

[MsFulltiltpoker]

ugly intro ugly format. look at wsop ME 2008

[alexandra4able]

i hate hainz.

[cheshela]

still live? will there be broadcast version with hole cards seen?

[thisfuckinsucks1]

30 mins in this is just awful!!! wtf i mean come on wsop this is like bs.

[filmup]

norman looks like robocop with those shades :P

[PG1337ify]

i love lon! he seems to be such a happy man and is a really good commentator!

[thefrigidness]

the main event final table is the greatest poker event in the world. the early stages of the ME aren't so great compared to the Poker Players Championship but regardless .. the players who make the november 9 defy the odds ...

[golfmaniac007]

final table is the worst form of pure poker since the blinds are so high. i think they should consider lowering the blinds so that we may see better pure poker. pushing all in and racing off is not poker or poker reading.

[Ramel34]

@golfmaniac007 You do realize that this is edited down for tv right? They were playing this final table for hours.

[ToolArmy951]

@Ramel34 this is not edited. this is live so we see every hand.

[MrUndead115]

For those interested; on my channel there is a vid of howard lederer trying to justifie the ponzi scheme full tilt poker was. It's pretty funny

[AlexLaslau]

why did they dont show the cards at poker card camera?

[Anduril6000]

@AlexLaslau it´s live, well with a 30 min delay or so I believe. You have the right to muck your hand. So they don´t show the cards so you can´t have someone sitting at home texting you the previous hands.

[funkyandybboy]

omg heinz, from shortstack..... respect

[Watterpolo]

norman is back yessss

[Watterpolo]

the introducing is so true

[medistream]

Germany is beating USA in all kind of competition !!!

[texasalltheway1]

@medistream we won the war.

[deesep]

20:25 WIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII­I

[sikfreak6969]

How awesome would it be just making it to the final table! How many runners entered the comp??

[2Addicted2YT]

It is just a pleasure to listen to Antonio Esfandiari reads throughout the game.

[polzer12345]

pls upload part 3

[BoobiesHooray]

Anyone remember "Squiggy" from Laverne and Shirley? That''s Stazko!!!! Thank Buddha that retard Laborda isnt at this final table, they would have seen half the hands with his donkey time wasting BS he pulled when he was in on EVERY hand.........Id like Gianetti to take this down, sad.

[musicisakey]

'live' is cool. thanks. even esfandiari is ok

[GluteusIlluminatus]

The absence of the hole cam is pretty fucking annoying.

[bertdorf4]

Awesome upload, you are my friend!!

[dominicrichfield]

you ARE the BEST!!!!

[oleHABSole]

limping AQ wow they're playing scared.

[wegotpokermoney]

they need to drown out the sound of all the drunks somehow

[speebyda]

@wegotpokermoney More alcohol. Not drown out pass out.

[kristiantheheathen]

I agree. They all but put muzzles on the players, but the crowd is allowed to scream like monkeys. It's like sitting in a zoo watching online poker on your laptop.

[Lettenbichler]

Woooohooo - online already. Keep it up.

Thanks man

[micursez]

your are my man BestFreePokerCash. Thank you

[let88it88be]

@micursez no slut he's my man, get your own
