Default Fire Jack Effel Now!!!!

The tent
The registration chaos
The One on One, mercifully described as clusterF ***
The inept personnel, for which he was directly responsible
The obviously faulty planning

Let's not wait for more disasters....The guy is clearly in over his head....FIRE HIM NOW

Actually I believe Mr Pollock should probably be the first one off the gangplank. If the ship is sinking blame the Captain not the crew....

Jack is actually a solid guy that does a good job, if there are bad decisions made they were probably made well above his pay grade.

Whoever's Idea to turn the W.S.O.P into DONKEMENTS by changing the blind structure must go now. That's like making the golfers play last weeks U.S. open use only 3 clubs.

Blame probably falls with most pros' insights and suggestions to the heads.

It doesn't make any sense to me why the people running the WSOP can't hire people to analyze the structures and come up with the best ones.

I thought they had a "board of review" or some such garbage of pro's for insight on the tournament structures, etc.


Someone made mention of this before, I'm certain....however it was regarding Annie Duke, and I thought I heard Lederer mentioned in regards.


Or I could totally be nuts.

Board of Review. LMAO. Thats the problem with these guys, they are trying to do things on the cheap. Hire people who have the skills to put all the data through the computers and work out all the probabilities. Don't leave it to a bunch of poker degens (said in a nice way) who won't get around to doing it because they are out playing all night and sleeping all day.

I thought Goering and others had determined that the structure is slightly better this year. What's all the complaining about?

I think Goering's post was about the $10K Main Event structure. I don't think he said anything about the eariler events.
