If you're interesting in checking out the final table of the WSOP LIVE, I will be the lead analyst along with Oli Nejad. Tune in for all the hand-by-hand action. We're going to be joined in the broadcast booth by plenty of poker stars including Phil Hellmuth, Doyle Brunson, Chris Ferguson, Andy Bloch, and plenty more.
ESPN has invested more resources into the broadcast this year. We have an integrated stats package that will keep the chip counts current and active. We have a gorgeous side line reporter that will bring all the good stories from the stands. We have more staff for hand tracking and such as well. With all that we learned last year, this is sure to be a very compelling broadcast for all poker fans.
Please tell your friends. If this broadcast doesn't get 40,000+ subscribers, I've been told that this will be the last year of the life telecast.
Let me just say that it is an honor to be selected to lead this final table broadcast for ESPN. Tune in and enjoy. I'm predicting an 18 hour final table.

Things are in full force at the WSOP, and the entire poker world is here. It's truly amazing how this event has grown over the past five years.
Hope you are all keeping up with my podcast from the WSOP. Rafe, Andy and I are leaving daily messages from the RIO and talking about notable hands, giving insider accounts, and interviewing other top poker pros and celebrities.

Hi all,
It's been an exciting day at my company, Expert Insight. A video from our upcoming DVD, Card Trick Magic with Stephane Vanel, is being featured on MySpace's home page and shown as a featured video.
Since midnight, it's been viewed over 44,000 times!
The clip can also be viewed on our Corporate MySpace page. (Please feel free to add EI to your friends lists.) Stephane's DVD comes out in a few months; he's an amazing magician and we think the DVD will be a best-seller.
Ok everyone. I want to give you, my loyal readers, a chance to get your poker questions answered on YouTube.
Here's how it works:
1. Post your questions in this thread. (You will get extra points for embedding a video question.) 2. I choose the 3 questions I like best and answer them via video on YouTube. (I'll post the answers here on my blog as well.) 3. There might even be a special prize in it for the overall winner.
That's it...ask away!
Phil
P.S.
Did anyone see me on ESPN at the Jordan Celebrity Gof Invitational? The whole weekend was a blast. I tied for fourth with Chris Doleman; even though we didn't get much air time, I can promise you that I made a lot of great shots - probably due to my company's golf video, Short Game Golf with Jim Furyk and Fred Funk (shameless plug!)
