Default Re: WSOP Main Event Final Table deferred until November

What the pros have to say about the WSOP FT MOVE

Roland de Wolfe

Hi All,

Is this really going ahead? It takes away so much from the integrity of the event. In three months players ability and mentality can be totally changed. It would almost like be playing different players.

It is also dangerous for the players, leaving them vulnerable to corruption and threats. When tens of millions are on the line the wrong types are attracted to try to influence proceedings. This time window could be a serious opportunity for them.

It may also discourage people, especially those travelling cross continent to not enter the event, if they do not want to travel twice or have commitments in November

And what if a player dies in the meantime?

This is a poorly thought out idea in my opinion. There are some positives that are far outweighed by the negatives here.I really think for the good of the game it should be overturned. This is a very player unfriendly idea and I sincerely hope we can voice our disenchantment with this. I feel our greatest event is being taken away from us. Is my position supported?

Roland
