There is no winning argument for Harrah's side. It's awful for appearances, a totally half-assed and unfair gesture, and whichever whimsical character at the head offices of the WSOP OK'd this should realize by now that inviting the 3 non-qualifiers to the event was a fairly significant screwup.

Which unfair gesture is that, exactly? Adding 3 players that they choose to generate revenue for their own freeroll tournament?

Besides, this is Harrah's. How could anyone be surprised by this, given the abuse they've taken for their past actions?

Whining about a 2% loss of equity in a freeroll tournament just seems like a good way to try to kill off more of these kinds of things.

I'll wait for anyone to give me hard figures that prove this change is damaging enough equity, so as to make entering the qualifying tourneys a bad decision.

But, this doesn't affect me at all either, so c'est la vie
