Title: New Series of WPT?
Post by: dalzini on May 04, 2006, 05:09:02 PM
Anybody know when the next season of the WPT is due to be screened in Britain? I am sick of watching clueless celebs and repeats of the 888 open, come to think of it I am sick of listening to Jesse May!

Yea he is annoying.  But the guy on BLUFF radio wins the award for the most annoying poker commentator.  Has anyone heard him?.

It may just be me, but I like Jesse May's commentary. I guess I just find him entertaining. :)

The DJ who did the EPT commentaries would run him a close second - i have to watch them with the sound turned down!!

I agree Matt.  He is a Radio 1 DJ.  I only know that because someone told me.  I am an old codger and listen to R2, R4, Radio 5.

Good question, I was thinking of asking this myself.

Is it on in the States yet?

We have been fighting to get radio in Killie for awhile now.  Unfortunately, I am forced to listen to copies of radio shows recorded onto audio cassette by a friend.  :D

Jesse May is a massive reason poker is as big as it is now in the UK.

remember back to the days 3/4 years aho when he was commentating on late night poker. He had a BIG say in how late night poker was run

Dont get me wrong, I like Jesse May aswell, but the thing is...he is on every single programme, and unfortunately has been sucked into a few on the pathetic celeb ones.

His commentary is wasted on such appauling play at times, as a result I tire of hearing him, fair play to the guy, he is doing very well for himself, just my poker viewing has been saturated with Jesse May.

So back to the origingal question, anyone know when WPT will be screened??
