Even though this isn't being taped for a full ESPN episode, there are more cameras than usual at this final table. ESPN has an ENG crew (hand-held cameras), along with Bluff, who is webcasting this at WorldSeriesOfPoker.com. So there are several hand-held cameras floating around, along with a few stationary cameras -- and our chip counter can't be in front of any of them. Even the tournament director/announcer has been pigeonholed into one spot and asked not to move. Unable to approach the table, it is nearly impossible to see the chips and get accurate counts. We will do our best, and we will still get official chip counts (to the chip) during all the breaks.
