Default ME Sit and Go.

This main event is playing out like a turbo sit and go.Is there any reason for that with the amount of chips in play compared to blinds?

Go away, Phil Gordon.

In all seriousness, the stacks aren't as deep as you're being led to believe. Only Rahme and Yang have significant room to maneuver post flop.

The stacks are deep but not insanely deep, and most people have had M's of 10-15 the entire way with the exception of Yang and the chipleaders at the start of the day. This plus bad overall level of play plus TV-friendly tendency to shove leads to this playing out like a SnG.

It should be noted that this will wind up taking close to, or over, 200 hands, considerably more than any SnG.

It should also be noted that pretty much since 2005, every WSOP ME Final Table sweat thread has involved a chorus of posters saying "lol zomg this is playing like a SnG wtf!"

Well, as I am busy pointing out in another thread, it can be tough to have intelligent discussions and avoid sentences like "ZOMG HAHAHAHAHAHA THIS FT IS DONKAMENT PWNAGE WTF SHOVE SHOVE SHOVE SNG BUBBLEAMENTS HAHAH" when people are dumb as doornails and can't form coherent sentences. This site is laughable at times, how hard is it to type/be well spoken?

Pointing out stupidity as a reason for being banned? If that's the case, go right ahead and send me packing.
