I was actually quite pleased that he made it to the final table & really enjoy watching him play. He's an excellent player imo & I hope he's able to get to HU in this. (vs. czar19).

mrflip09 · Jul 18, 2017

i hope he falls flat on his face.....he is one of those lucky players that raise or call everything and gets lucky!

Why do you hope he gets HU with czar19? I think Piccioli's comment to Ruane was out of line.

Who else is disappointed that they dropped the November 9 format?

ragemine · Jul 19, 2017

Indeed disappointed. I'm not even sure if ESPN is showing the main event this year. But I also haven't looked

tilan501 · Jul 19, 2017

Never seen him playing.
I'm going to watch some stream or video of him!

They are showing the full final table. Here's the schedule:

7/20 - ESPN2 6pm PT (9 to 6)
7/21 - ESPN 6pm PT (6 to 3)
7/22 - ESPN 6pm PT (3 to winner)

Thanks for posting that - I wish ESPN had more coverage this year, didn't feel like signing up for PokerGo so I mostly just read the live updates.

I think Hesp would be great for the game, seems like a really good guy and he's been on a mad rush of cards.

Could see Lamb rubbing people the wrong way but he and theczar19 are the most experienced tournament players left in the field.

I kinda like the tournament not stopping for 3-4 months, I want to know who is the best player now, not who will be the best after months of coaching.

Rational Madman · Jul 19, 2017

The only thing I hate are players like Tony Guoga who literally say racist/nationalist insults for an absolutely reasonable thing like calling all-in with KJ in the final 4 against ace 2.

Watch to the end:

Watching The WSOP

I was wondering if anyone out there is also watching the wsop? I have been watching on ESPN...but see they transfer over to pokergo. Has anyone downloaded this yet? if so, how has it worked

ekgbeat · Jul 19, 2017

OP, why do you dislike Ben so much? What about him makes you so upset and mad?

mrflip09 · Jul 19, 2017

i just dont like him.......he is one of those players thats aggresive and lucky! call call call call call call call and hits his lucky 2 outter to win! thats all lol

mrflip09 · Jul 19, 2017

and i am glad they did away with the november 9.....i want to see who is the best player now..or luckiest player now.....

Tidal · Jul 21, 2017

I think the winner will be a less known player but not an unknown one. It is pretty rare to see a really famous player winning the main events in the last few years.

Shells · Jul 21, 2017

I'm pulling for John Hesp to win. Say what you will about him, but he is making this final table fun, in my opinion. In the end, whoever wins it will be fun to watch.

Friend/partial stakee gets table drawn with former wsop ME Champ Jerry Yang...

I like jerry yang! It looks like he got a illness ATM so hope he gets better.

pokgirl · Jul 21, 2017

I don't think a well recognised pro will win it. I would've loved to have seen Ivey win it in his prime.

Brandom1 · Jul 22, 2017

The only thing I can say at this point is that I believe it will be an american!!!!

He was a former P5 #1 ranked player (online MTT play) & used to occasionally rail/follow his play (I'm pretty sure there were some members on here who were coached & staked by him as well).

What comment? The pokerGO stream commentators mentioned on a bunch of occasions that the two of them are good friends.

fordman427 · Jul 27, 2017

I would have liked to seen Hesp or Ott win
