Rocky start for the in-house updates, does not bode well for the Colossus and the Main.

WSOP showing a bit of a 'Im taking my ball home' approach to negative feedback, not for the first time

I'm cringing at that tweet from WSOP. No idea who wrote it but have a feeling I can guess, sadly.

I'd love to know what people aren't happy about though. I understand Barry's complaint about the focus on Americans...but tbh for example, I did Day 1 yesterday of the 1500 o8. There were 4 Brits in the field of 900+ so I can't really focus on Brits when they are not here. I will be keeping an eye out though!

Adam, remember to check the entries of Estonia Eritrea Gabon Equitorial Guinea and United Arab Emirates for the Brits.  Those girls at the registration desk dont have Geography as a strong point!

I get the lists in excel format so just remove all the USA and CAN players

7 hours into this $25k tourney and a player was just escorted out. He paid for the $125 tourney, got the wrong ticket, and kept quiet.
