My Thoughts on the WSOP TOC

This year Harrah's has annouced that the Tournament of Champions is back on the event list. To say that I am elated would be an understatement. I am not only thrilled about the prospects but I am extremely happy about how they went about setting up the rules for the tournament and including the public in the selection process. This is what the TOC should be all about in my opinion.

The TOC is more than just an all-star game it is an event to look forward too just as much as the Championship H.O.R.S.E. event is. The idea that 27 of the best poker players in the world are all going to fight it out in one tournament has got to be exciting to anyone that plays or watches poker tournaments. I also like the fact that they held exemptions for former champions like Annie Duke, Peter Eastgate, Joe Cada, Barry Shulman and Mike Matusow.

This particular poker tournament will be televised and I would think it will be one of the most highly rated once when it comes time to be broadcast. I am looking forward to it and you should be too!
