Extra Chips in ME?

[trying2learn]

I posted this in the other thread, but I thought it may warrant it's own thread as well.


If you take Card Players reported chip counts to start today and add them up, you get 88,226,000. If 8,773 players started, then we should only have 87,730,000 in play. The difference is an astounding 496,000!

Half a million in chips added since beginning of play? Even considering a couple extra players or the difference in running off chips, this seems to point to a lot of cheating...


Am I out of my mind?

Seems to me much more likely to point to mistakes in the CP chip count. Honestly, being off by <1% of the total doesn't seem that bad to me.

Card player #'s are APPROXIMATE.

someone also said in the other thread the WSOP was allowing some players who blinded off on day 1a to play again on 1d. that would account for some too...

half a million just seemed really high to me. maybe it was too much x-files in the 90's. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

I've struggled with your avatar as well. We really should get together for drinks the next time you're in town - if for nothing more than the great [censored] talking which will no doubt ensue!

yea 100% cp

At one point, CP's figures were off by over $2m, (Richard Lee was listed as 5.275m instead of 3.275m).

When the chips are raced off, especially when the $1,000 chips , wouldn't that create a large part of the discrepancy?

CP has trouble getting the winner of a hand between 2 players right sometimes, so I would guess they would be off.
