“Attach themselves to him”? By doing a “shuffle up and deal” speech? Lol.
I don’t think that would impede any sort of Moneymaker involvement whatsoever. Plenty of pros have been through the sponsorship revolving doors and still been a significant part of the WSOP presence, and if you’re just talking about a “shuffle up and deal” speech, whatever patch he’s wearing would not make any difference to WSOP organizers I can almost assure you.
