Posted by bowie1984: Could be pretty boring having all these high roller events with always the same couple dozen participants... They must be sick of each other by now.
If these people play excellent poker and have money i do not see what the reason is not to play. Would play more people if there were satellites for this tournaments event. There are many good players who can not to buy entry in these games. Need satellites in future for more players.
