Sure, LOL at being heads-up at a major tour final table and just wanting "to do something else with your time", doesn't really hold water. I'd bet the real story is closer to Mike giving Ryan way more than ICM in exchange for chip dumping the title to him.
Anyway WPT has rules against chops and deals, and certainly against chip-dumping the title to a 2.3:1 chip dog.
If WPT has any integrity they should nullify the results, make it a no-winner tourny, and remove POY points for both of them, and the TOC entry. Let them keep the money they won, but a WPT Title shouldn't be earned by a chip dump agreement, in fact it's against WPT rules. We'll see what WPT does.
