November Nine Hype

When they first announced a plan to delay the 2008 WSoP final table until November I was skeptical. It seemed this idea would change the dynamics of the tournament by pausing play for several months but was willing to let that detail go if they were able to really promote the November Nine in the name of the all-powerful cliche, “it’s good for poker”.
I’ve been surprised over the last few months at how little hype was coming out about the WSoP other than the weekly broadcasts of the Main Event. Luckily things have started to ramp up with the final table to be played this weekend at the Penn and Teller Theater in the Rio (and broadcast on Tuesday, November 11th). The poker media and bloggers are starting to pick up the pace as we count down the days. Tuesday evening ESPN aired their Final Table preview with player interviews and commentary from some of the big poker names.
After the jump you can find the ESPN clips on the three members of the Final Table representing Full Tilt Poker.
