Poker Goes HD for the First Time

ESPN will air this summer's World Series of Poker in high-def for the first time, bucking reality TV's general shunning of HD technology due to its higher costs. You can read more at TV Week.

The best part about this news is that since ESPN2 reruns this poker tourney seemingly hundreds of times throughout the year, at least it'll finally be in HD. The players themselves may not look better in high-def, but I'm guessing that Phil Hellmuth's tantrums will be more entertaining.
