There was a thread on this.. I can't remember if it turned out she didn't play (I think) or maybe we never heard back... for some reason I think I remember it being that she didn't play.. But I'm not 100% - might be worth trying to find the thread.

She didn't go, unfortunately. We can't disclose any information other than we believe it was a valid reason and not something she could have foreseen would happen.

If i have a decision 10k$ or go to event to try playing at my current situation i would pick up cash without thinking much. Yes i would love to go and try WSOP... but for most of us 10k is really big ammount. Nothing to blame.

Blame? What's to blame? She couldn't go (obvious reasons - which I can't discuss here), and as far as I know, it was not possible to get the cash ($10k) instead.

If the winner wasn't able to go, wasn't she able to sell her pass or for you to have the second place winner go instead? What a shame, I know I would be disappointed if I won and could not go.

Well, IMO she blew her spends (as is visable to all who look) quite fast, the rest might have been miss fortune, but ill say it now, 1hr is all I needed to book a flight and have that ticket put in my name. The main event is over a few days, was she that unlucky to be in day 1 and within 24hr of flying out the bad thing happend. One of the best things to happen for bankrollmob members and it was a waste of time for all.

the real reason they didnt go was because they blew all that money in two days, travel cost money, IMO, a disgrace to us poker players here at bankrollmob

omg what a graph ... looks like someone who have never seen a deck of cards before.
What a waste of the WSOP ticket... too scared to go probably.

I agree that it was a great thing for all at BRM but if it as Tony says and 'somthing happened" I hope all is ok now.
As for "blowing" her bankroll that fast well maybe not all of us would have done that but none of us know for sure what has really happend so before some throw stones ...!!!
