The reason they dont focus much on elky imo is because there are a lot of super star players there rofl.

Like, why focus all of your time on Stork when you have Jaedong/Flash/Bisu/Boxer etc in the room as well.

isn't it more of elky = jaedong (current top player), and you have the rest who are/were decent players. i thought it might be cause elky just rapes his table, so it might make for less spectator friendliness.

A top player hasn't won WSOP Main Event in YEARS. It's always an industrious, or sometimes plain lucky rookie or pseudo-rookie.

This is great, though. WSOP is absolutely huge in middle america. That Elky is doing so well and simultaneously promoting SC is pretty awesome. All the luck in the world to you, Elky.
Remember Violet.

There was once a dream that was Esports. You could only whisper it. Anything more than a whisper and it would vanish... Now is the time to make that dream a reality!

Elky was the WPT player of the year last year and has about 6 million in tournament winnings so he's definitely a top player, one of the best mtt players out there.
