That more shorter matches are more entertaining - Longer matches have an ebb and flow to them. Multiple shorter matches increase variance.
Until we can produce a video friendly form of the game - think WSOP - it's not going anywhere. Who is "the face of BG" -- we just see hands and the audio is even worse - games not being streamed can be heard, people talking, people coughing, and God knows what else is heard during a streamed match. Cutting off the audio helps, but if the players are talking about the game being streamed - that is interesting. We need a producer to make the game grow.
