Do you think that action will any better during the weekend of November 9? Do you think people will head to vegas to watch the final table live? Or will it just be another weekend in vegas?

WSOP side action comes from thousands of tournament players coming in to play the various tournaments around town. I wouldn't expect the final table to cause much of an uptick.

Zero effect. You have to be an invited guest to watch it live, and this isn't the kind of thing that would draw a crowd anyway.

You don't think they'd fill a good-size room for the final table if they let every TD&H come in and watch?

The final table is open to the general public. It is first come, first serve seating.

Anyone know how much room there will be? Are they holding it in a ballroom?

I'm sure they could fill a room, but I don't think it's the sort of thing that would have any measurable effect on Vegas poker for that week.

I believe they're having the final table where Penn and Teller perform at the Rio.

Would they be so audacious as to charge to watch it? Or is that beyond even Harrah's?

Didn't they try that last year with PPV? I think it flopped.

Whether they charge or not, I think we all know the answers to those questions.

Keep in mind they play down to 2...and then come back for heads-up play on the Nov. 10th.

I say zero effect.

The Venetian has the Deep Stack going and Caesar's will have their Mega Stack. Either is more of a draw than the WSOP Final Table.
