Re: \”Second chance\” bracelets

LAS VEGAS–Daniel Negreanu is on some sort of WSOP board that will be advising Harrah\’s suits on future WSOP set-ups. And just heard him on the live pay-per-view coverage agree with announcer Howard David that these $1,500 and $1,000 \”bracelet\” events kinda dilute the value of other bracelets. He says WSOP officials will be seriously considering eliminating any bracelet events that start after the main event. Negreanu — who I think is the best poker ambassador since Mike Sexton — says that without many pros in these post-main-event events, particularly the ones that start when pros are still alive in the main event … \”These bracelets should come with asterisks.\”

That, of course, is something Gonz has been saying all along.
