Default I really hope a legitimate player wins the WSOP

With the stories flying around (who knows which ones are even true?) about all these pros getting sucked out and busting out of the tournament by some jackass calling an all-in bet with nothing and then rivering, I started to worry about what might happen to the WSOP if things like this become too commonplace. I hope the tourney's not getting too big for its britches. If it ends up being a place where there are so many fish that'll suck you out that even the best of the best can't beat them all, I wonder if the pros will start playing elsewhere and the tournament will lose its legitimacy. For the moment, the money is just too much to pass up, but that may change in the future if the WSOP gets to be just too ridiculous. ESPN's coverage and Moneymaker's win may have been the biggest boon yet to the WSOP and poker in general, but I wonder where it's going.

I realize this is all a bunch of Chicken Little BS right now, but it's still something to think about (but not too hard).
