Here is something possibly against TOS for WSOP where they favor a player who has great results but probably isn't known mainstream.
HOURS into the WSOP yesterday Chance Kornuth tries tweeting that he doesn't want to play this day and he wants his stack picked up by WSOPTD etc... and is tweeting @kevmath and some others who work for WSOP.
He says he would like to play today instead. Many people tell him the rule is if you get picked up you can get reenter the same tournament( But I believe they do refund you once for this)
Kornuth tweets today about how his day is going so far. I tweeted at him "so they didn't force you to play yesterday " He says nope.
Bunch of people believe this is a rules violation because his stack was just blinded off for hours yesterday and he had it picked up and then got to reenter today.
Maybe someone knows if this is not supposed to be allowed ? If it is not allowed then it is clear favoritism towards a player who is known on the circuit. I don't think they would do this for Mike Smith from Idaho.
