2026 World Series of Poker May 26th - July 15th
Are they going to show the ppc tonight?
No, not until the final table on Day 5.
They will check in every now and then to show one hand without hole cards or do an interview but no one cares about that.
That's unfortunate, Ivey, helmuth, gus hansen, arieh and rast and tons of other well known people still in. I guess tonight we will get milly maker or salute to warriors, maybe day 1 of 25k nlh/plo.
Edit - yeah just checked and it says day 4 of milly maker, day 2448 of NLH streams
well, everyone that clamored for the free stream all these years, you got it. The only 'cost' is that the free coverage is sh-t. They prioritize a low buyin NLHE donkament over the PPC.

Maurice Hawkins: "Now watch me fire this $25k NLHE/PLO high roller tournament."

Yeah itβs quite disappointing. Not only did it eliminate the coverage this year it erased hundreds of hours of PPC coverage in past years.
I think the mods just delete anyone who mention the PPC in chat. I just see comments disappear.
Their audience has to be so casual that they only appreciate NLHE but want to watch day 3 or 4 of Milly Maker
Probably a bunch of people that would like to watch the table with Ivey and Gus Hansen on it
2.5 hours is a hefty delay.
I like seeing the low numbers, so dumb that thereβs a 2.5 hour delay but the commentators take an hour with them.
They are going to war with people in chat. If you simply ask βwho is leading the PPCβ they will zap you and threaten to ban you from watching the PPC FT.
It's not. Viewership has been low for the 'milly maker' and much of the chat is just asking about the PPC, they're barely talking about what's on stream.
This was a bad decision by them, tables like the milly only work when the big money is on the line which they are still not at the final table.Meanwhile, the ppc has the big names people want to see but I understand not showin
This is the day you really want to see on the PPC as you get to see something resembling deep stack cash game play. And the side conversations are often great. You had Gus Hansen, Mercier, Hellmuth, Arieh people that donβt play the SHR stuff that has been played the first 20 days or so of this coverage. You get a nice blend of old guard nostalgia with games that the current poker crowd now appreciates more than ever.
Probably comes down to them going with Stapes and him not being a good match for PPC with his corny jokes and so forth. Would be like serving a fine steak on a paper plate.
Would be very surprised if PPC wouldnβt have had double the viewers. Put it on another stream with no commentary. PokerGO has multiple streams on all the time.
Where can I catch up on watching the PPC? Used to be on PokerGo but can't see any WSOP on it this year.
Everything is on the WSOP Youtube channel this year.

Unfortunately nobody can watch the PPC at any price until the last day when there are 5 or 6 people left. Instead you can watch some randos play a $1,500 tournament, which a lot of pointy heads on here insist is somehow more popular and appealing to the masses than watching Hellmeuth, Ivey and the biggest names in poker play the $50k poker players championship. Updates are available on Pokernews.

Updates aren't even really available either because they're technically "showing" the ppc tonight, at the secondary feature table which probably means they'll show one hand an hour or something, but because of that it's on the massive 2.5 hour delay with minimal updates
They say final table of PPC will stream tomorrow.
Also: @JoeStapesStapleton
Anyone who complains about not seeing the PPC is going to get timed out until the PPC stream tomorrow.
Wtf that's a joke
Pretty sure they've advertised that they were going to show the ppc each of the last few days. And instead they show random cutaways where you can't even really tell what's happening. And then today they said they were going to show it for real and now it's at a real table with cards streamed, but still not actually showing it. Pathetic. Maybe they will eventually, but if you don't care about a 1500 nl you probably aren't going to stick around all night waiting for them to cutaway to show you a hand or 2 of the ppc eventually.
No, not until the final table on Day 5.
They will check in every now and then to show one hand without hole cards or do an interview but no one cares about that.
Not been watching the streams since the World Cup started but that is pretty gash.
PPC was absolutely immense on PokerGo every single year.
And now pokernews says they stopped filming the PPC, so when they said they'd be showing both events today... well that was what we got. In a final 8 that has 3 very recognizable names to even casual fans, including one of the biggest names in the world, and several other mixed game crushers, not even including the other big names that already busted today.
To everyone complaining about the PPC not being streamed don't worry they are making it up to us. After the PPC final table tomorrow they will be streaming 3 straight days of the ladies event! This is very exciting news.
