I don't believe that you think that Harrah's Entertainment/WSOP coordinators carry absolutely no influence with ESPN at all.

I know nothing about chess tournies, so I can't really agree with anything of the sort.

This whole discussion of self-sustaining is completely out of context now. Maybe you'd prefer I use a different phrase in place of "self-sustaining" since my last two explanations have clearly been ignored. So last try on this piece: [U]The funding[/U] of poker tournaments (not including freerolls or money added stuff) comes entirely from the entries fees paid for each player in the event. There is never any reason that anyone anywhere ever has to go drum up ad revenue or concession sales just to make sure that there is enough money to pay to the winners. The moment entry fees start coming in is the same moment that all the prize pool money starts being available for payouts.

Yes.

See, we agree.

I don't think that I've disagreed with this in any way. But they can televise it without changing the the structure, right?
