We think we offer the players the best tournaments in south Florida and although they don't carry the WPT name, they do carry the Isle name.
IMHO, competition is healthy anyway. Example: when I was at the Rio WSOP in 2008 & 2009 for about a month each year; Binion's, Venetian & Golden Nugget had competting events during the same time frame and they were all busy. What would be nice however, is to add some mixed events like Om8 and HORSE instead of just NLH.
Which brings me to the next question for all players - Can we get enough players to bring back to
The Isle on a regular basis the $8/$16 Om8 with 1/2 kill (maybe add stud h/l) game? No for me to this if it's going to be a $10/$20 game. IMHO, $8/$16 games plays insanely good and bigger than the $10/$20, especially with all those $2 chips in the pot
!!! I'll be ready after the PBKC WSOPC ends.

PS - After more than 6 months hiatus from playing live poker full time (due to getting my Systems Admin Microsoft Certifications), I'm excited about playing again full time!!!
