Then dont sign and dont play the WPT events. No one is holding a gun to their head forcing them to.

*this is just my rough understanding of the situation*

The WPT has deals with the most of the large casinos that have the customer base to support the high buy in poker tournaments. In these deals the casinos agree to not have a high buy in tourney unless the WPT films it. The players can either sign away their rights, or not play. There are no other high buy in tourneys available regularly besides WPT events. Thus the WPT has a monopoly and that is why they filed an anti-trust suit.
