No. Seat assignments were random and had nothing to do with how a player qualified.

When I played WSOP event 9, I got my seat assignment when I registered, the day before the tournament. It can't be entirely random since registration wasn't closed and they didn't know how many people would be playing.

I heard that Raymer doesn't really win pots anymore, once he gets a stack of chips he just beats up his opponents in the bathroom, takes their chips and buries the body in a hole in the desert.

A lot of problems are buried in those holes. But you gotta do it right. I mean, you gotta have the hole already dug before you show up with a package in the trunk. Otherwise, you're talking about a half-hour to forty-five minutes worth of digging. And who knows who's gonna come along in that time? Pretty soon, you gotta dig a few more holes. You could be there all night.

Man, this forum gets better and better as the days go by.

Pokerstars sent over a 1100 qualitfiers because it would dilute the tournament hence, there would be more fish to sacrifice their chips to their main man, Raymer.

"My chips for you Raymer, my chips for you." (seriously, what do u think the point of the Pokerstars get together is when u first get to Vegas. Im telling u, its a damn cult.)

Lee Jones is the Oz behind this curtain, I guarentee it.

I heard they gave him special glasses so he could see the marked cards.

I heard on the floor that when you fill out your ESPN profile that you have to list your IQ. Then the ESPN staff goes through and finds the ones that are mildly retarded to play with Greg. Even when he's beaten he does that scene with John Candy and Judge Reinhold from "Stripes" and takes their chips.

It's all rigged.

On Raymer's interview, the day before the World Series started (Before Event #1, that is) he said he didn't qualify online this year, he ponied up the 10 grand.

and look at him today pokerstars had to make a special powder blue shirt for him so that he would look more innocent. I heard they had to start sewing that shirt three months early so it would be ready to fit him and his "diet coke" drinking butt. (I heard he switched to regular when he got over 1 million)

joking this guys game play is unreal and I think I'm probably fatter than him.

I'll try and get a picture tommarow to prove it

I would just like to play with a 1.5 million dollar chip garden just once.

isn't that the real fun in poker, the chip garden?

online sucks
