I haven't even tried to watch it the last couple of years so I don't know how or if they are currently doing it, but I miss the way they used to televise the WSOP Main Event on ESPN. I'm talking about before they went to the live, unedited broadcasting of the final table.
I enjoy poker as much...
While I agree with you that there is an element of chance/gambling in poker, there is also definitely a skill component as well that, I think, separates it from other traditional gambling games like roulette, blackjack, etc. I think it does poker a disservice when people lump them all together...
