Re: Matt Hilger\'s WSOP proposal
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] The top players would be happy, as they now would have a prestigious tournament to play that would crown their champion. [/ QUOTE ] Are there really that many top pro's complaining about the ME? Also what would prevent the average player from forking over the cash... [/ QUOTE ] probably the fact that it is now 100K rather than 10K satellites would be much longer too...

[/ QUOTE ] You cannot stop me and my 24 friends from putting up $1000 apiece and having a satellite. By the same logic, you cannot prevent online sites from offering a satellite to your tournament. Nor can you prevent people from soliciting backers, etc. Theoretically, the house could refrain from running "official" satellites but considering (1) the satellites increase the number of entries, thus making the house more money, and (2) the satellites themselves are raked, it's hard to imagine the sponsor that would shoot itself in the foot by trying this.
