Hi this is Skyler Dyck im 21 been playing professionally for about 2 years. Have never written a blog before but I just thought of something that actually could destroy the main event almost guaranteed. i know for sure most of you play on fulltilt but think about this for a second why the delay of the main event will turn into collusion. If you qualify on fulltilt and win the main event they pay you an additional 10 Million dollars. Think about it someone qualifies from fulltilt and makes the final table he has serious collateral that he can use to collude his way to the win because he gets an extra 10 million thats probly what 1st prize is going to be from my estimates. Hell he could give have 3 or 4 guys in give them 2 million each to dump and collude for that extra 10 million sure he gets 1 million a year as long as he stays on contract. But that massive bonus could be the thing that seriously sends the final table into collusion. Secondly its going to be about who trains the most, and some people say well everyone has the same opportunity to learn but why should you have to and if you dont you put yourself at a disadvantage and if you play in any televised events your opponents can see how you played at that specific tourney. If you make it to the final table your best option is really go into hiding in the caribbean or whatever for 4 months and study. If any big name players make it to the final table there going to be at the biggest disadvantage because the other players would be able to access a ton of information on them. And really wouldnt it be great for poker if a big name won the main event. Like no offense to Jerry yang but come on your not even a poker player. Jamie gold, lol come on he got sick luck to win and people donked off all there chips to him. Another thing about the final table its being delayed for 4 months so that everyone can see it and bring more ratings but I believe from what I read that its still going to be the 2 hour total of the final table. Its going to be the same as last year, where I downloaded every episode of the world series but the final table every hand they showed was allin allin. How is that going to change this year its not. 1 second the guy dbls up from 13mil to 26 mil and the next hand they show hes allin for 18 mil like its stupid. As if it wouldnt be intense too watch it like poker after dark they show almost all the hands sure it takes a shit load of hours, but hell this is the biggest event of the year like why wouldnt you show all of the action or at least make it 4 hours on 1 night event just a lil longer than any sporting event. So you can see all the excitement because theres no doubt just watching the atmosphere playing for the world championship and the 10 mil is great enough not to be shown as a casual allin fest. hell the WPT is starting to have 2 part episodes. They show around 10 hours to just make it to the final table and have feature tables so they can show big names but they need too definitly improve it and extend it. Im stunned that negreanu thinks this a good idea. Lets say im right and someone from fultilt qualifies and makes it to the final table. The World Champion of Poker could easily have cheated and our world champion is even worse than Jerry Yang theres going to be scandals and it could turn into a massive gong show. This is probly the worst case scenario but it could happen and it doesnt have to be from just fulltilt im just saying that because its 10 mil for 1st extra that definitly worth disgussing if youve qualified on there but any site any promotion sponsorship and just normal players everyone is going to be looking for the biggest edge so they can be world champion and take down the cash its going to change the outcome no doubt and the next world champion is a cheat. What a brutal idea
