There are basically 2 camps of thoguht in the poker world, when it comes to dissatisfaction with the WSOP Main Event buy in. People who think the WSOP buy in ($10,000) Is too expensive, Poker is, afterall, the only sport that appeals to pros and ameteurs, the only sport where as an ameteur you have the chance to sit at a table and play against your idols. $10,000 is hardly affordable to the common player (although there are a wide range of satelites to this tourney)

On the other side, many people believe that the WSOP buy in should be raised, to make it less of a lottery and more of a game of skill. Afterall, there were almost 8,000 people playing last year, for a pro to even make it to the money is becoming extremely difficult. Which side do you identify with/ i haven’t really decided.
