During the early levels, I don't mind slow-playing to try to flop a set. For now, I think they should kepp it just as it is.Question From gadzooks64: Are you going to do anymore commentating?Howard Lederer: I am on every week doing Poker Superstars 3 commentary on FSNQuestion From boo1979: Main event, do you slow play aces, muck them or push all in straight away?Howard Lederer: There is no set way to play them. The WSOP needs to continue to support all games.Question From FTN_chris: do you think they should make more main events? like maybe one still at 10k and have a more expensive one to filter out the fish?Howard Lederer: There can only be one main event. It was scheduled on the same day as a big NL event. But, it does seem like Mike gets the best of those encounters.Question From flutist1983: How was the Razz tournament this year? I've heard this may be the last year that Razz has a tournament at the WSOP.do you know if that is true?Howard Lederer: I didn't play.

Mike and Phil are usually just needling each other. You can get DQed for sharing chips, soft playing among other thingsQuestion From mkca28: Do you enjoy watching Mike Matusow pester Phil Hellmuth as much as I do?Howard Lederer: That is funny.

But the one that are in will make up for the others.Question From Wolfy13: Other than the ME, which other braclet event would you most like to win?Howard Lederer: The new 50k HORSE event. But, if you made a list of your top 100 players, I am willing to bet that those 100 players have significantly more than 1M in chips.Howard Lederer: Yes, most of them are out.

So, of course, many top players were eliminated as well. What are your thoughts on that?Howard Lederer: Remember, almost 2/3 of the field were eliminated on day 1.

There simply aren't 8000 good poker players out there.Question From GuinnessDad: Howard, I am surprised at the number of professional players who went out in Day 1 despite the advice to play tight during the small blind rounds. The number of great players does get bigger, but it does not grow at the same rate as the total field. I would take him against most of the players at 100k.Question From check-raise2k: What is your opinon on the quality of the competition in this year's WSOP main event?Howard Lederer: It is weak and gets weaker every year. Some good gems in here (sorry if formatting is bad):Question From limedeal: Do you think Phil Ivey can recover from his short chip stack at 23k to become a contender in the main event?Howard Lederer: Definitely.
