Unfortunately my second day at the 2006 WSOP Main Event started out bad. Upon sitting down at table 63, Seat 6, the sealed security bag containing my chips had been opened and chips placed in front of my seat. Upon counting my chips, I immediately notified the dealer Mark, that my chip stack, was short 3200. The dealer called floor and the floors ruling was essentially that it was too bad.
During the first break, the player in seat 3 asked me again how much I was short and stated that his chip stack was missing 5000.
I have 2 problems with this situation notwithstanding the obvious, the first is, what the point of placing the chips in a sealed bag, if the sealed bag is opened outside my presence? The second, why even bother having a sealed bag and chip security if when it comes to a ruling it doesn't matter anyway.
