Wow, these events are so crazy soft I need to start playing them. I will be quite happy to be a "Ladies Champion". I'd like to get in on that senior's event and the casino employee's event too.

It does raise the question then, if the Commerce has started a president here.

I mean if men can complain they were discriminated against in order to get into a Ladies Only event, wny can't someone who is just 21 complain about reverse age discrimination, and be thus be allowed to play in a Seniors event, hmmm?

I think the commerce has opened up a real can of worms here, IMO.

technically it is "illegal" to descriminate against men and have an "woman only" poker tourney. if a man wants to play the casino MUST allow him to play. this doesnt happen often as most men just choose not to play but, it would be considered sexual descrimination if they did not allow him in the tourney... so to answer all the naysayers YES this is VERY POSSIBLE

After watching Canseco on the Pro-Am Equalizer I don't think the women need to be scared of him.

Meh .. if you or any other man manages to get into the WSOP Ladies event in 2008, I for one will be banging on the door demanding to be allowed to play in the Seniors event (not much of a stretch anyway for me, as I will only be a few months off from the deadline anyhow).

If Harrahs lets guys in for the 2008 Ladies WSOP, then that could be the end for ALL special events is what I'm getting at.

Uhhh why would you be angry if guys get in the womens event?

Why can't seniors have their own event like they do in golf?
