Play the WCOOP Final Table battleship poker style at EPT London 2008

[FatalError]

Title says it all, next year the main event will probably be nearly 6 figures for 9th place. When they hit the final table everyone gets paid 9th place money immediately and receives packages to EPT london to play the final table battleship poker style in a sequestrium sort of event.

This solves:
Multiaccounting (name on account has to play it!)
Long hours / Playing final table vv tired
Account Selling
Groups of people playing the account


A real time broadcast of everyones hole cards during tournament on a minute delay or something which would be awesome to watch.

Next year first place will be ~1.7 Mil, thats more than the WPT gets these days, why not make a bigger deal out of it

If you are going to have them all in london anyway why not shuffle up and have them play the event out live? I like the idea either way though.

This is a great idea.

I don't think they want to broadcast hole cards live, even on a delay, because it sort of ruins the point of not seeing hole cards. But, the battleship poker idea is sick, espec because it makes a bigger deal out of the whole thing and would be awesome publicity if televised.
