Default Re: Another Color-Up whoopsie or...?

You would think they could hire a few people who can competently color-up chips when the customer is paying that much for a tournament.

If this was some $5 tournament at a bar or something where the person running it doesn't know much of what he's doing then these are honest mistakes and it's no big deal.

For a $3k or $5k (or god-forbid, $50k HORSE event) I don't think it's too much to ask that they actually have some kind of clue on ho to color-up.

Yes, the player needs to protect himself here.
But that's only because he has to know ahead of time that the WSOP staff will consistently make some pretty inexcuseable screw-ups.

I think some of these screw-ups go way beyond the "they're human...mistakes happen" excuse.
