Wsop question

sorry if it wasnt clear but my question is, if there is one more person added to each day 1, would the outcome of the tournament be drastrically changed? what about 1 less person a day?

this just makes absolutely no sense to talk about. what if the dealer shuffled the cards differently at the final table? what if instead of 4 shuffles he did 5 every time... what if he used a different deck of cards.

these things don't make sense to talk about

Small initial variations result in drastically different outcomes.

I think we all understand what effect such a change would make. but I don't really see the point in talking about it. daryn is spot on.

ok, so what about this: what if that one extra person they added picked up pocket aces on his very first hand and the rest of the table went all-in? Should he call?
