There is also the fact that with 2000 players and the press there, you could easily see unwarranted accusations being thrown around that would neither happen or be publicized at other tournaments. In fact I'd bet even money that there will a real or imagined incident of someone losing his stack when he shouldn't or not losing it when he should, to help or hurt someone else.
