World Series of Poker Main Event 2019 - Day 5 with Antonio Esfandiari & NFL Legend Richard Seymour

[@TylerDurdin]

Commentary and coverage collapsed in 2019. This is so boring. Makes you appreciate the edited coverage in previous years.

[@rasbenjah9753]

True

[@andybehmke8308]

It went from an entertainment program to a poker show. The woman in the booth is not helping.

[@bradfordbowman8203]

And Norman Chad! He was so funny, goofy, and fun!

[@bradfordbowman8203]

At 1st I thought he wasn't in commentary but now I see he is!

[@timokaufhold617]

[@jaksdt]

Norman sounds like he lost his mojo.

[@murphybrown1366]

They added a woman

[@radelster]

Yeah they added the woman...but her and norm already divorced on day 3.

Joseph Chong has mad so many deep runs in the main event it’s crazy, him and Cada both

[@DC-vp1iq]

find myself skipping to action more then watching

[@BreadPitt7]

2019 started on day 5? Disappointing! The display is also pretty terrible tbh. How can you make something worse?

[@tjfaus3202]

Oh boo hoo. Get over it

At least it isn't behind a paywall.

[@mr2gti]

Horrific graphics in this style.

[@7LiquidSnake]

I agree

[@seekerytomfain194]

It does feel like very little editing was done in comparison to the other years prior. Is there any difference from this video as opposed to the live stream of the event?

[@markcummings3146]

I know live/edited TV coverage stopped at this stage but why have we started on Day 5 of the main event? The early days are where the fun is inclding the money bubble.

[@martinedwards4522]

this must be the year they made norman chad stop being funny

[@derekharrington8787]

They replaced Norman with some boring lady and lon is awkward and boring

Norman didn't lose his MOJO, he's probably just going through his 10th divorce. 😂😂😂lol.

Graphics team forgot to turn off the "CRT TV" filter.

Takes me 5 minutes to watch these uploads.

[@richardsimmonsjuggernautof9781]

Brinkley looks like a real goober!

[@zoukchata]

Binged 2018 and before...BUT .. 2019.. what happened to the funny commentary??????????????????? Huh???

[@vladimirkurochkin9331]

Same. Now with 3 commentators the special chemistry is just lost, no more silly jokes

[@chrisgj1927]

Think you can put it down to production/editing team, from an entertaining production to zero

[@neinscheisse9535]

seems like they started commentating live during this one where in the past they did it later until the final table. The girl feels so out of place and forced.

[@benjjyy10]

So 2019 was the year poker got boring to watch 😂

[@matebreskovic5880]

I am dying out here and I have been watching all of these since they started

[@robertrosen4015]

I guess that's why they started with day 5

[@matebreskovic5880]

@@robertrosen4015 I'm 45 mins in can't believe how boring it is. Just forcing myself rn.

[@didzytheravinghistorian974]

I was at day 2 with my lil duck. Was hopping to see myself on the Feature table

[@markcummings3146]

Anyone know what happened to Jamie Kerstetter? She was a player then quite involved in WSOP commentary but not heard about her much in recent years.

[@Lou-Meatskavitch]

I think they "read the room" with her and cut her from commentary. No one likes her commentary.

[@rawslice]

Rich doesn't look so big, until you see him next to normal humans

This Poker shows dead to me !

Poor Norman. You could hear he is holding back from being his usual self.

Ight I'll just go back to watching exiting golf

[@mykelengieza7057]

Seymour is packing a .45 cal....

[@debilee9275]

Corona sponsoring the 2019 tournament... coincidence?!?

[@adamsircharles]

How did the entertainment regress so drastically? Wsop was wonderful to watch prior to this year. The commentators aren’t being utilized in a way that befits their witty and theatrical style, the display has too much going on and is quite awful now, even the lighting is boring. Things changed much for the worse

[@tommas5215]

Seymour got to be the nittest player ever recorded on wsop main event history.

[@richardsimmonsjuggernautof9781]

Seymour is such a nit fish

[@MANGKANORMIDNIGHT69]

i agree but he is still a better player than both of us

[@richardsimmonsjuggernautof9781]

@@MANGKANORMIDNIGHT69 football yes, poker he’s not close to me 😂

[@12aR9]

If you wonder why Norm is not that or at all funny it's bcs this was live commentary, so no pre written jokes and reherse and watching episode before doing it.

[@JayAdams-ml5jf]

This is hard to watch. Everything just seems bad and phoned in. The display of the main tables is just absolutely horrid.

[@MANGKANORMIDNIGHT69]

andy stacks made the, met him at the Commerce casino several times

remind me please, Kara Scott is from England right? whats with the accent?

[@jimmyhopkins2876]

From now on I will stop watching WSOP!!!!! what an edit that is very uncomfortable on the eyes

[@dft110]

bruh why andy is so young

[@resatmavi8679]

Seymour extremely passive player ,he won't get anywhere

[@Ian_Synnott]

Seymour is some nit. Checking back that QJ and folding the over pair 10's on the driest board ever!! Horrible player

[@ValenceLiam]

Terrible commentary..terrible players it takes one hour to make a decision 😂😂

[@philip-op6de]

This is it ladies and gentleman…the year that the WSOP became almost unbearable to watch 😢 this is my first time watching any of the WSOP from this year on…it’s just sooooooo bad

[@kenthehobo]

This is awful! Does anyone know why the commentary is so dull? They sound miserable!

[@philip-op6de]

Because PokerGo got involved lol…they took over poker, made it boring, then wanted you to pay for a worse product that was free 💀

[@alcoholica1986]

Took like a half hour to get used to the new announcing style, but its fine now

[@MedicalMalpracticeLawyerRMarti]

No humor!

[@6speed636]

wow, what a terrible show compared to the previous 13-15 years. Lon and Norman forever! this isn't worth watching, the commentary is neutered and the graphics are dogshit

[@MedicalMalpracticeLawyerRMarti]

Borung Boring Boring Etc.

[@MarkusCarrus]

The year the main event becomes less entertaining mainly due to the boring atmosphere and muzzled characters in the commentary box, Norman and Lon have been toned down to a funeral speaker to fit Jamie in there and she’s dull as dishwater

[@resatmavi8679]

Power, it's gay jacket

[@AwninGod]

Antonio, you gotta rethink the kicks.... pathetic.

[@samvrielink4125]

Terrible commentating, we need the old norman and lon back

WTF happened ? This is unwatchable.
