Yeah I think this is a good idea really. Will get way more publicity for the sport and the fact that people can self promote way more should discourage some of the negative aspects.
Although, I do think it is bullshit that people are going to be sacrificing at least 30k from interest they would make from 9th place money over that 3 month span AND the players don't even get compensated in any way and still have to pay rake. |

Actually, they get paid 9th place money right away and the rest of the prize money will be held in an interest bearing account.

What the WSOP really needs is a way to attract more interest/marketing dollars, right?
It is desperate for some kind of revolutionary concept would guarantee the largest field in the tournament history -- over 8000 players. Something that would make sponsorship dollars flow like wine. In fact, sponsors would be so eager to participate and attract new players, they could have a free fan-friendly expo where everyday players could meet/greet pros, buy merchandise, etc. If things go really well, you might even end up with a remarkable Cinderella storyline in which an aptly-named nobody emerges to win the title and become an unlikely champion. What could possibly happen that would ever make this scenario a reality?

What if everyone had to pass there cards to a tournament referee before starting the hand, and he whisper them to us backstage? That way we would know them as the hand went on...
