Nah, this way is definitely better. If he keeps it to himself until he wins then the story will [I]only[/I] get out if he wins. And even then it'd be a story for a day or two absolute tops (I'm talking mainstream media here, not the poker media) and then everyone would forget about it. Even the poker media and fans will quickly move on.
 
But with the November Nine format he's just given the media a major reason to spend the next four months talking to him and about him. [I]"Sure, one guy's got the chip lead, and one of them is a mulit-millionaire professional gambler, but have you heard about the guy who's gonna throw out the trophy if he wins?!? Who is he, why would he do that?!?"[/I]
 
Trust me, being the guy who'll throw out the trophy will make him at least as interesting to the mainstream media as Ivey or the chip leader (whose name I've forgotten already).
 
Of course, he gets some fans hating on him, but if what he really wants is exposure for his beef with Harrahs this is probably as good a way as any to go about getting it. Especially since if Ivey sticks to form he'll probably spend the next four months avoiding the media.
 
[B]EDIT:[/B] missed this bit of the story first time around:

Maybe it's [I]one [/I]of your goals.  But I promise you it's a looooooooong way behind your [B]major[/B] goal, which is [B]selling magazines by the truckload[/B].  A stunt like should work very nicely towards the latter goal BTW, thank you so very much.
