Default Re: wsop chips

[ QUOTE ]
I was told that part of the contract that sold the WSOP to harrahs stipulated the WSOP final table must be played at Binions, but only this year. I heard that from this year on the WSOP main event will move from Harrahs to Harrahs every year..im not sure if this is true, but all in all the commercilization of this entire event has really taken away from the experience.
I was totally impressed by the even at the Rio, but I still miss the traditional WSOP....i guess with the growth of poker we have lost some things as well

you may be right. on closer look, it seems to be speculation.

Default Binions tourneys

[ QUOTE ]
PLayed one of their late night tournemnts and came in 4th out of 65-70 people with rebuys(60 buyin w/ optional addon that everyone took) and made 300 dollars?? Myself and the others calculated the money and found well over 1000 dollars completly unaccounted for(yes thats after their %).
I was just dissapointed all around.

I have heard from multiple sources that Binions takes 25-40%. Ridiculous.
