I can't believe they only showed TWO ****ING HANDS of heads up play. I listened to the whole thing on the radio broadcast and was really looking forward to seeing some of the hands, especially the hand where Demidov had quads.........SO PISSED RIGHT NOW!!

Yea thats kind of a joke.

I definitely would have liked to see more heads-up. A few factors that probably swayed the decision-making:
1) the two finalists were not very talkative or exciting to watch (Eastgate barely even reacted even when he won the thing!)
2) elimination of the first 7 took longer than usual at a final table and there were a lot of hands to be shown (in fact, they didn't even show the hand that knocked out Kelly Kim)
3) they probably only had a few hours to put together the heads-up portion so they just tossed in the biggest couple of hands that would fit in the allotted space they had left over after the other 7 eliminations.

Not saying they were correct decisions though. Perhaps with more editing time they could put together a 3-hour version which includes more final table and heads-up play. I doubt it will happen though, unless they release a DVD of the WSOP with "bonus footage".

This was probably the worst coverage of a final table in some time -- hopefully they will go back to having a live stream next year
