There's no way Harrah's is going to allow this to happen, it just seems like a really bad publicity stunt for Pokershare.

Hellmuth raises, Mikey the Chimp goes all-in...

[beeyjay]

they wouldnt even let that affiliate rock a rabbit suit last year so this wont happen. i guess we all did go to this site tho and heard of pokershare.com for the first time so maybe it isnt a bad idea afterall.

im pretty sure most people on here have heard
of pokershare b4, at least lots of threads on it,
but i think they would be much more concerned
with the wsop audience

A while back there was a Stupak thread I wanted to make this comment in. I will do it here. Back in the day Bob had a chimpanzee trained to deal poker. He wanted to use the chimp in a live game. Small stakes. Rumor has it that he changed his mind (like the gaming board would approve it anyway) because as efficient as the monkey was, it could not call out open pairs and constantly over raked the pot. Heh.

This "really bad publicity stunt" is already working because we're talking about it right now.

What are the odds on the monkey winning the entire thing?

I saw this rumor yesterday on another site and since I won my seat for the ME through PokerShare, I am guessing it will be non stop abuse for me now during the tournament since I will be wearing their gear. I can see it now:

"Hey look, we have the monkey at our table"
"The monkey plays better than you"
"You can take off the monkey suit now"
People handing me bananas, etc. etc. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]
