Isildur1 Won’t Make TV Appearance + Poker entrance music
Poker will have to wait to see Isildur1 in more-than-virtual action. Tony G informs us that they mystery Swede has backed out of a staking deal with the G that woulda had him playing on PartyPoker’s televised Big Game IV.
Meanwhile, even without a highest-stakes masked man at the tele-tables, PartyPoker still plans to bring a new component to televised cash games, with each player choosing “walk-on music“.

A couple years ago I was convinced darts was about to be the next poker.

So did ESPN when they created the World Series of Darts (held at the Mohegan Sun). Then the ratings tanked, and they buried the rest of the episodes on ESPN Classic.
