Sorry but that is a illogical comparison. Lammers have Face value for one and only one purpose - WSOP entry fee's. You can't buy drinks, meals, pay for your hotel room spend them in the Casino or even sit in a regular poker game and utilize them. They are NOT cash only a cash equivalent for a SPECIFIC PURPOSE. The limitation of usage therefore logically impacts their real world market value. It is basic economics not any type of loan shark equivalency.
Quite simply would you personally rather have
(a)$10,000 in hundred dollar bills or
(b) $10,000 in Lammers ?
If your answer is (b) I will happily get you those $10,000 in Lammers for you and trade
