Registration Filling Up?

Is there a difference between 'registration filling up'/'event selling out' and 'Harrah's trying to funnel players to Day 1A'? Because the latter sounds like what's happening.

There is a big easle type of stand with a sign that said "44xx" players now registered for the Main Event directly before the players club signup booth in the hallway. This was 4 days ago that I saw this. I commented to my friend how they were no where near the 8k projected.
