It would be interesting if being caught cheating online had brick and mortar ramifications.

I am sure that if someone were caught hiding tourney chips in his pocket, for future (higher buyin) WSOP tourneys they might find themselves banned from future WPT or WSOP tourneys.

Should htere be ramifications beyond those already enforced? (assuming that his is guilty as outlined in OP).

I feel fairly certain that Harrah's will ban them if they can get cooperation from the sites. On an unrelated note, Larry Flynt got a lifetime ban from the WSOP when he attempted to get someone to lose to him on purpose at the final table when it got heads-up. I know a lot of the Harrah's people, and my gut feeling is that known cheats from online will get lifetime bans from Harrah's properties (which, of course, includes all WSOP events).
