There's a huge difference between needling someone and publicly questioning their honesty and integrity. The former is gamesmanship. The latter is (as they say) fightin' words.
Whether its in the poker room, the living room, the bar room or out on the street, there are some things a man does not say to a man unless he's willing to put up his hands.

for those of you watching it, have they reached this change up discussed ? I am sure that ESPN will not edit it so that is it possible to know if a player knowingly benefited from this error, but somehow I wouldn't be surprised.

When you are tryin to continue to legitimize poker there is absolutely no room for it at all. It wasn't prison or on the streets. While Prahlad might have been needling him you can not have players threatning violence on other players no matter what is said. Now if this had happened at a cash game that wasn't affiliated with the wsop then I would say to each his own.

...let's see here, coverage on a major cable network, corporate advertising, thousands of players...you think the WSOP/B&M tournament poker needs 'legitimizing'?

Guess who I saw today?
He's smaller and just as annoyingly punkish looking in person. |

meh. ESPN obviously thought it was good TV.
And by the way, ESPN is not trying "legitimize" poker, its trying to profit from poker. I'm going to say it again - publicly questioning someone's honesty and integrity is not "needling" him. If you can't say "f*ck" you shouldn't be allowed to call someone a cheater. Besides, where was the friggin' dealer when the pot was short?

They started running some of the other events this past Tuesday. I believe they'll do that on each Tuesday night going forward from either 8-10 or 9-11 p.m.
Actually, here's the whole schedule:
