Jared Bleznick banned for life from WSOP, then unbanned days later?

I thought Jared B. was banned for life? According to the 50K list (35th place), he is playing in the event.

Kessler approached me to complain about this.

Told me that Jared Bleznick was banned for life, and then mysteriously unbanned with no explanation.

I can't explain it either.

My only guess is that he knows someone with influence (either a player or CET executive) who helped him out.

Remember my depressing meltdown from 2nd chipleader of the $10k LHE to being out within 75 minutes, during late Day 1? The one who started that meltdown was Bleznick. He was playing loose/crazy, and my timing was all wrong against him, laying down hands when he didn't have it, and calling him down when he did. Then, from that point, I started just getting coolered hard against everyone.

I was actually the one who was responsible for sending Bleznick on tilt in the first place, when my QsTs beat his AdKs on an A-high, all spade board. That was my peak, and it was all downhill from there.

Here is the hand that got Bleznick banned:

Zaichenko looks over at Bleznick, and he says "I only have one thousand left, give me a payout ticket!" Zaichenko bets 1,000 and Bleznick fires his last chip into the pot. "Floor, give me a fucking payout ticket now," says Belznick.

Zaichenko shows 10 6 5 4 2 for a ten low. Bleznick's first four cards are tabled in front of him 8 5 3 2. He stands up, lifts up his last draw card, and crumples it up in his hand, throwing it across the table. He then grabs the rest of his hand, and crumples them up as well, spiking them down on the table. Zaichenko quietly takes in the big pot, and Bleznick is escorted to the payout desk.

This was at the $1500 2-7 event.

A fairly reliable source has told me the following:

Jared Bleznick was allowed back in the WSOP because Phil Hellmuth went to Jack Effel and talked him into reversing the decision.

Phil and Jared are friends, and he was able to use his big name and influence in the game to get Effel to reverse Bleznick's ban within 2 days.

Funny how you were just talking about the favortism on radio last night and how the big stars get special treatment. That's exactly what happened here, though Jared had to get his special treatment by way of a big star.

Not as bad as Antonio pissing in a bottle at the table. Anyone else would get banned and possibly a sex crime. But he gets a laugh.

The WSOP sucks Hellmuth's dick so hard its black and blue by the time the series has ended.

14 pieces of hardware will tend to do that plus being in the HOF.. When you are the winningest WSOP player in history you tend to have a little more juice with the management vs the avg joe schmo or even the King of the luckbox aka Jaime Gold.

Speaking of dick sucking anybody see WSOPTD's twitter Fellatio of Joe McKeehan yesterday??

If you look closely, I'm pretty sure that you can see Jack Effel's boner

He's a low life grifter who is friends with a bunch of other low life grifters. It's as simple as that. Bleznick is easily the classiest guy involved in all of this, to put it in perspective.
