Hellmuth ready to take down bracelet #12

I'll bet they get over 3000 for the Main Event. You game?

This year doesn't matter! Most of these guys qualified a long time ago.

Unless you get a shitload of local live games offering up satellites for next year........I think A) they take a big hit, or B) most of the players are foreigners who still win their seats online.

You don't seriously think most of these guys pony up 10K, do you Jack?

I'm sure Jack will take over 3,000 next year as well

They still pony up the money because they get it in cash and not a required to play entry.

Yes, I'll take over 3000 next year too. :0008

Well, Jack......I will defer to your expertise in this matter, I guess.

It just sounds like you're saying internet poker has no bearring on the size of the WSOP.

No, in 07, when I played last, there was around 8000 players. Just saying it isn't going to be in the hundreds, that's all. You said "hundreds".

I hear ya :toast:

Oh, bullshit. You can't tell me most of those mooks didn't win their spots online. If people have to cough up 10gs to play in the main event, the field will be back down to the hundreds, not thousands.
