Re: will Brunson/chan WSOP dominance ever be repeated?
I really dont understand the greatness of Brunsons double win, why is it so glorified?
in 1977 there were 34 entries
in 1976 there were 22 entries
Sure there were some pros, but im sure some rich donks aswell.
How hard is it to win a 22 man tourny and after a 34 tourny? Its like winning 2 sit and goes in a row, not a big deal.
Chens win was obv much more important, as it was 170 some people twice with a much harder field. Players are becoming more educated as its more analyzed. Chens 2nd place finish the year after is also a great feat.
