Considering that other major events have been either postponed (Summer Olympics now pushed back to 2021), or cancelled outright (The Masters Golf Tournament immediately comes to mind), the fact that Caesar's Entertainment hasn't pulled the plug on the WSOP yet is not smart. As somebody else said, it's a huge undertaking for a mobile festival like this. Hiring extra staff for the 6+ weeks, as well as all the other logistics that go into this event, not to mention all the people who are looking to participate, not being sure if they should be booking a flight/accommodations, etc., it's not something that "just happens".
Just curious for others in here who either would participate/know of people who would participate - is what's going on right now with this pandemic influence your decision? Would you still go, even with the potential of catching this virus? Or are you taking the more cautious step of not going?
