Raymer: $40k tournament won't top main event
2009-01-29 11:59:58
The 2004 World Series of Poker (WSOP) main event champion Greg Raymer has suggested he does not believe the special $40,000 no-limit Texas hold'em competition being held at this year's WSOP will top the main event for prestige.
Card Player magazine cited the Fossilman - so-called because he collects fossils - as being a supporter of the new tournament, but he does not appear to buy into the idea that it could be the most important hold'em event of the season.
"There's going to be talk of that (the prestige of the $40,000 event compared to the main event)," he remarked. "But I'm pretty sure the main event is always going to be the main event."
Daniel Negreanu wrote in his Full Contact Poker blog earlier this week that he believes the tournament, which has been designed to celebrate 40 years of the WSOP, will be the most prestigious of its kind this year.
