Default Re: after mike sexton\'s CP article....he needs to STFU

Not a big deal, but I thought this from the article was weird, too:

[ QUOTE ]
Here’s why: Suppose that Phil Ivey and Doyle Brunson played on day one and they each had $500,000 at the end of the day. I’m guessing there are those who would rather get their $10,000 buy-in back than play on days two or three.

Is he suggesting that people will fake emergencies in order to generate an excuse to not play the tournament if and when great/world-class players amass chips on Day 1? Of course good players are going to have chips after Day 1A. I don't know any self-respectiing poker player who would find that daunting.
