Regardless of if the money means a lot to someone the way that the tournament was run was fairly shambolic at the end. I'd be outraged if the rules were so flagrantly abused and cost me a seat to the WSOP. If nothing else moving Annie Duke away would have perhaps resulted in the tournament being finished quicker which seemed to be what he wanted and regardless of Shannon's rookie status she should have been told not to tell another player how to play. I hope this gets sorted and this guy isn't allowed to TD again. I've been to some fairly shambolically organised tournaments in my day, with professional TDs but nothing quite as bad as this.

Why doesn't anyone want to disqualify those people who cheated? Why not cheat if there's no penalty for doing it?
