Re: Fixing the Main Event

About the only things you could do to the ME to make it more likely that a top pro was going to win would be shuffle machines, and $5 chips. (The latter necessitating many more levels, maybe another entire day.)

Also, I kind of like his idea. If only the winner cashes, and everyone starts the ME with $10K, meaning that the amateurs that get to the 'sweet sixteen' have the pros 10-1 in chips. I'm sorry, but it wasn't luck that blew Scotty Nguyen out of the final table, after amassing about a quarter of the chips, if you hear him tell you, it was Scotty Nguyen. Golf pros can shoot 80 and Scotty can donk himself out of existence in the ME. It happens.

So, to reiterate: OP's idea = bad and will kill the ME. There was a tournament of Champions, it was enjoyed by some.

Pros constantly go deep, but now there are more amateurs than pros. People have been bitching about amateurs and satellites in the ME since the early 90's. Don't believe me? You Tube.
