Battle Not-So-Royale over Control/Role of the WPA

Very disappointing … I was hoping for a knockdown, claws-out blood brawl between Wendeen Eolis and Jesse Jones as the two try to position themselves to maintain and wield influence on the future of poker … but alas, Wendeen\’s straight-from-the-horse\’s mouth recount of the rise and stumble of the WPA takes a relatively sober look at how these types of organizations work, and sometimes how they don\’t.

While the outgoing WPA leader does get in a few jabs at Jesse, her predecessor and succesor … where\’s the vitriol, the bloodthirst, the instinct to kill-kill-kill!?!?!!!! C\’mon, we\’re living in an MMA era … and unless you two are gonna both make it to the final table in the next WSOP seniors event, how can we expect good TV ratings if we don\’t get to watch poker industry stalwarts violently wrestle for power?!? The web is good enough for being cagey, but next time lets take it to the Octagon!
