Re: Harrah\'s \"Intranet\" Poker
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] If this is successful for them, would not be surprised if they start looking at shutting out other casinos (online or B&M) from qualifying people for the WSOP. [/ QUOTE ] Good point. Avoiding online or B&M casinos from paying people's way into the WSOP would cut down on the number of entries and money involved. That means less need for so many dealers, cocktail wattresses, and accountants. Expenses would go way down. [/ QUOTE ] Actually, my thought was that when 8000+ people come herding in for the ME, Harrah's execs think, "I really wish we had gotten all the qualifying tourney fees involved in getting them here." Every hundred bucks spent on qualifiers represents ten dollars in fees (possibly more for a B&M qualifier) so there is more money to be made, if Harrah's can control more of the qualifiers. |
