Yeah I too want Antonio to win and I think he can pull it off, however if a non-pro wins will we see a second boom?

Like if Guy wins it and donates all the winnings like he's said he will, that might trigger a trend of lots of businessman coming into big tournaments or cash games and trying to win and donate some of it to charity and announcing it all over too, kinda like a PR/CSR thing, making a name for themselves across the charity circuit. In a weird way that might help the poker economy and the new money could also trickle down to mid and low stakes as well later.

Had this weird idea, might happen.

As far as link goes, I access it from here:
http://www.wsop.com/tournaments/updates.asp?rr=5&grid=887&tid=12155&dayof=
When it is live, there is an "On Air" tab to the right of "Reports".
On one occasion it suggested I install veetle app (or plug-in -- I forget exactly), and when I did so, I had access to the HD feed. In full screen it worked perfectly. Note that I have the highest speed broadband I can get.

I am impressed by the overall class of the players, and the demeanor of the audience such as it is. By class I mean their behaviour, not poker skill.

I've also enjoyed the comments by all of the people that have come and gone through the day. The host -- David Tuckman (never heard of him before) -- impressed me by his ability to talk almost continuously without resorting to completely meaningless drivel too often.

As far as winners -- Einhorn winning would be very cool for a lot of reasons.
Guy Laliberte winning would be decidedly uncool, even if he donated the entire thing.
I have a soft spot for Bobby Baldwin. Can old age and wisdom withstand youth and skill? I like to hope so. :)

Hellmuth doesn't win or lose well. I cringe at the thought of him winning.

I favour Antonio though.

I get the "no signal" on the stream link. Shouldn't "the chips be in the air" already?

As far as I understood, wsop.com stream is visible outside US. 15 min delay, as in ESPN.

Nevermind, now it says that the stream is on a 15 minute delay. Should have mentioned that earlier.

This works for me much better than the wsop link

And I didn't had to install anything.

Not sure, I paid the daily pass on ESPN for 1,99€, so I can enjoy that action in HD without lags. Seems to be playing great. For now. Off to watch the action.
