Poker superstar says he’ll skip WSOP Main Event: ‘It’s just exhausting’.

In today's Las Vegas Review Journal and posted on Twitter.

He mentions it's an endurance challenge and puts older players at huge disadvantage.

Any chance WSOP adjusts schedule moving forward to 8 hours of play? or 10 hours of play?

Prediction: In protest, Hellmuth will max late reg the Main Event this year.

He’ll be sprinting from camera to camera, saying how he paid the Uber driver $500 to make a screaming U-turn right before the airport off ramp.

I think Hellmuth's point is valid. I know Dan Harrington feels the same way.

However, I think it's important to the people who run the WSOP to have a packed house. So, I doubt if there will be any changes.
