Noah,

Man, it's early. You can't expect me to read through the whole thread to figure that out, can you?

Anyway, it's really early, but this sounds like it can be a huge issue.

I kinda wish that it just died out because it'll be bad for poker if it turns out that there was a huge mistake or cheating going on, but obviously, that's very unfair to the people who played.

Cheating ?!?!? in a competition with 10 Million @ stake and 8800 different people playing.... Gee some of these people are dishonest... I'm stunned... FWIW the extra chips may have helped the winners but I doubt they helped the people that originally brought them in (yes I get the fact that the extras might have helped the cheaters bust people that didnt deserve to be busted, of course its kind of difficult to sneak in a stack of chips, most likely a couple of 25k chips /10k chips slipped in when the TD's start early color ups (nobody notices but have a huge impact...) but you have to survive to that point. But short of getting RFID chips in the chips there is no way to stop this.
