WSOP Video Release Irregular, Players Miss the PokerGo Era
A player on Reddit asked about the WSOP $1500 HORSE event won by Nick Schulman YouTube video, only to find that WSOP content is sporadic and irregular, far from the rich content when PokerGo had the rights.
Recently, a poker player posted on the r/poker subreddit asking if it's possible to find the video of Nick Schulman winning the WSOP $1500 HORSE event from a few days ago on YouTube. The player lamented that WSOP currently only randomly uploads some content, with no fixed release schedule, and not all events are covered.
The original poster said they really miss the days when PokerGo held the rights a few years ago, when there was more live and on-demand content to watch. This situation reflects a change in WSOP's video content distribution strategy: shifting from exclusive licensing to running their own official channel, but the update frequency and coverage seem less than satisfactory.
For players hoping to revisit exciting hands or learn the HORSE mixed game format, they currently have to rely on fragmented uploads on the official WSOP YouTube channel, or wait for possible future updates. Industry insiders suggest that players can also watch recap programs on platforms like PokerGo, but the specific copyright arrangements are still subject to official WSOP announcements.
