Conflict of Interest?
Tonight's WPT was at Foxwoods where Lyle Berman was at the final table. I'm sure most here know that Berman is part of the WPT management team. I would assume that most here would agree that he is not at an advantage over another player in these tournaments with the exception that he is just plain better than most of the players there. With all of that said do you have a problem with him playing on his own tour? I look at it like the guy who organizes the March Madness brackets then wins the whole thing. You know he won honestly, yet you still look at him as the organizer, not a participant. I am undecided as to how I feel about Berman playing in the tournaments but, I think that some who have played in these tournaments may have an opinion on it. How do you feel?
