While I can certainly see that there's some good reason to want to avoid the burn-out factor that most of the poker-watching world feels by the time the WSOP finally winds up it's not much of a stretch to see that this 4-month (!) move is largely inspired by the desire to milk the thing for every nickel it is worth.
Why not postpone it until the next WSOP season? Or better yet, save it for the pearly gates: you arrive and the angels are there to greet you with your trainee wings, your fluffy white slippers and the results of the WSOP from years past. What suspense!
What a crock!
