Poker Pros Harshly Criticize WSOP Main Event Day 2 Late Reg Option

Mike Matusow and several other poker pros have fired shots at the WSOP Main Event organisers over a ruling that allows late reg with a reduced starting chip stack. He claims that it is unfair and makes a mockery of the greatest poker tournament in history.

Typically, Matusow’s haters came straight out and accused him of being a cry baby, no less, for simply stating what many feel is true: this is vandalism of poker’s showpiece event for the year.

The shouts of how it’s the same for everyone and if he feels so strongly about it then he can register himself on Day 2 are missing the point.

This same argument came up when Shaun Deeb tweeted that he was considering entering the $100k high roller. He admitted that he might not be +EV in the field and thinks that a late entry strategy might be sensible.

Mike Matusow pounced and started a fight with Daniel Negreanu over whether or not entering late benefits losing players.

Not “Chainsaw Approved”

It’s not just the late entry rule that is causing consternation for many players, particularly Twitter favourite Allen Kessler.

The pay-out jump between 10th and 9th is almost double, which for entry into the WSOP Main Event final table does makes at least some sense.
