Subject : Poker Pros have you met the Swarm ?
Sure you know about the "crew" and all the other pros, but it looks
like you where caught a bit off guard by '"The Swarm". Internet
players by the hundreds.
A field of 2,600 players? How did that make you feel? For us, it's
routine. We play that way all the time. We know that in the early
rounds your chances to buff are next to nil. We have been baptized in
the fire of competition. Natural selection, only the strong survive.
Chances are, that Internet player sitting next to you won his seat by
winning back-to-back tournaments with over 1,000 players each. That
takes skill and experience. So whose house are we REALLY playing in
at the WSOP? Yours or ours?
The swarm is real, the swarm is here, and the swarm is growing.
How do you plan to adapt?

A little melodramatic. But it does get its point across.
