Interesting to note WSOP Event #11

Head on over to Shamus' blog for a very interesting post about WSOP Event #11, regarding a deal that was reached by the final 3 players! I guess I'd never really thought about this aspect in the Series, but I guess it makes sense. Go read all about it.

Do you like deals at the final table cheer_dad?


For me it's something I don't really like. I mean, you're playing to win. I don't see deals made at the Super Bowl in the final two minutes or MLB World Series in the 9th inning.

Play the best poker you can until one person has all the chips and takes the gold bracelet and 1st prize money as it was originally allocated.

Where is that dress wearing guy to protest when you need him? hehehehe ;-)

In such a BIG EVENT, I'm not in favor of a deal. It would seem to leave things unresolved. Who really is "the best?"
