Re: When will we have next repeat WSOP winner?
It's not the bad players in themselves, but the bad players attract average professionals and strong amateurs who wouldn't have played when most of the field was world class players. Guys like Raymer, Moneymaker, Varkonyi (I know Raymer > Moneymaker > Varkonyi), Arieh, Williams, and Krux probably wouldn't have played when the field was stronger. When you put several hundred fairly strong players like this is a field with maybe 50 established world class players, it is more likely one of the fairly strong players will win, because there are so many more of them.
