World Poker Tour... possibly pre-determined?

[djluis2k6]

Does anybody else think that WPT could possibly be fixed? Almost every time I turn to WPT on the Travel Channel, there's always at least 1 or 2 big names at their final table. Not all the time is it the more widely known names, but it's someone who at least has a name, and those are almost always are the ones who win them. The World Series of Poker tends to make their own "future stars", so to speak, and they almost never have a big star at any of their final tables. It almost seems like WPT feels like they have to have some kind of known faces at their final tables, or else people won't watch their programs. Like just right now, Gavin Smith was 6th in chips and was pretty close on his way out at the beginning of tonight's 2-hour telecast. Then somehow by the end of the show, he wins the whole thing. Pretty amazing when he can rarely ever get close to a final table in WSOP, but in WPT, he's there a lot. Either everyone else who plays in WPT is not very good, or WPT is fixed.
