WSOP Invitational

I wanted to know what you thought of an idea for one of the events at the WSOP to be an invitational.

I was thinking something along the lines of access restricted to only those who are previous braclet winners, or possibly people who have made at least 2 final tables at WSOP events.

Obviously the criteria would vary, but you would have a tournament that would likely have more of the cream of the crop playing each other.

This obviously doesn't replace or diminish the main event, but adds another marquee event

  • I'd bet that none of those top players would want to play in it..

    Where's the dead money coming from?

    now if it was a sponsored event..
  • or they may be willing to shell out 400k each to play against premium players ala : http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/showflat.php?Number=853535

    the big dogs have more on their mind than just money

    Yeah, I've downloaded and watched the first 3 episodes.
  • I think it would be a great idea. And, I would not be surprised if something like this is being dreamed up. It is, after all, VERY television friendly.

    Do not underestimate the importance of ego for many of the top players. It's not all about money. Just watch the show put on by THE CREW or Matusow.
  • Hey Ventrick, where did you download them. I searched on Suprnova.org and couldn't find them. Thanks.
  • Egos, Pride. They'd show. Look at the 2004 wsop 5k lo ball with rebuy event. Very few entries, but many bracelet holders. Stupid thing had more rebuys than entries.. Aghhh 5k a pop... loball... agghhhh

    Barry G won and gave it all to charity.

    peace
  • I think everyone gets the idea ... very tv friendly and very ego gratifying for the top players. I can imagine that the bracelet from this event would be just a step below the main event but ahead of the other events, because of the quality of the field
  • yeah the first three episodes of that new special on fox sportsnet are crazy.
    best table iv ever seen, the episodes are released weekly on a tv torrents website, im not sure of the exact address, but its got milf in the title, go on metacrawler.com and type in tv torrents
