So in the last Video Blog Daniel you mentioned that you had wrote up what you think would be a great schedule for next years WSOP. Just hoping to see it typed out here because I am curious as to what you have in mind.

I'll definitely do that when I finish tweaking it. The schedule consists of something like:

10 NL Hold'em
6 LH
4 PLH
3 Stud
3 Stud HL
4 Omaha 8
3 PLO
2 Mixed Game ($50,000 HORSE, $2500 HOSE)
2-7 NL SIngle Draw
2 Razz
2-7 Triple Draw

Also a $25,000 Heads Up tournament for Bracelet Winners Only.

The bracelet winners only idea is gold and would generate tv revenue.

I know people hate this sentiment but I think its a good one. Also I certainly think that there can be a superior schedule while maintaining tv appeal.

The 25K HU Matches would be phenomenal.

Might I suggest making one of your Omaha-8 tournaments pot limit.

Daniel;

Do you think the buy-in for all the events you listed should be raised too?

i think the lack of a 2nd KC lowball event is balanced out by the triple draw event.

awesome schedule, i think everyone involved would be happy with this schedule. and it renews prestige in all events.

I agree 100%, but I don't think it'll happen....not enough NL events to satisfy the suits at Harrahs.... sad.gif

I saw a video on CP.com where J Pollock was talking about an event that was only for non-braclet or non-wsop final tablist. IMO the WSOP is an event centered around pros. They wouldn't just have PGA event where anyone could give it a shot. The non-braclet winner tournament should be down the street with the kiddie game IMO.

I think there needs to be more NL Holdem tournaments. Those are the tournaments that draw the most players, as well as make the most money for Harrah's. There has to be give on BOTH sides, not just Harrah's doing exactly what the player's want.

QFT, but I think that 10 NLHE events is plently.

Daniel, there was a thread in general where we were talking about lowball events.

I think you should push for a B.R.A.S. event. (B)adugi, ®azz, (A)-5 single draw, and 2-(S)even Triple Draw

Shame that we'll never see that schedule.

It'll be more like this next year:

40 NL Hold'em
SuperUberBob: I ****ing hate this game
Zach6668: lol
Zubial: stop playing it
SuperUberBob: I like playing, just not the losing part
Zach6668: LOLZ

What about a final table tournament?

You would only be eligible if you made a final table at a previous event.

This man speaks the truth. I like DN's schedule, but it's all about the $$$$ for Harrah's.

I do like DN's proposed schedule, but the lack of lower buy in events would greatly limit the "every man" from the chance to play.

I guess I need a better job!

I don't like the idea of having to win a bracelet to enter an event to win a bracelet. Anyone who wants to put up $25k should be able to enter.
