SpiderGuard 0 Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 Not really, seeing as how they make that much in less than a week.I wonder how much money they make just in interest on all the money stored on their sites in a day?Also, is it me or does that "contract" with FullTilt seem like it could really be lopsided against the player?"Additionally, Player agrees to play a minimum of 10 hours per week at Full Tilt Poker.com, and to attend any promotional events or tournaments that Full Tilt Poker deems appropriate.

Can I ask what you think the average contract is for a Full Tilt player per year,because I guarantee it is nowhere CLOSE to a million per.......or for more than a year at a time much less 10!!

bigslick7878 0 Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 These pokernews reporters must be smoking some good stuff during the break,they have Kalmer "taking the chip lead at 17.5 million" in the text,but the chip count says he has 1.759 million and is in last place.I know they said the chip counts run behind but that isnt right no matter what planet they are living on.

timwakefield 68 Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 Featured Table: Ray Henson Eliminated in 12th Place ($476,926)Tuan Lam has the button in seat 1, Ray Henson limps from the small blind for 160,000, Scotty Nguyen from the big blind to 500,000, Henson reraises to 1,175,000, and Nguyen calls.The flop comes {K-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}, Henson checks, Nguyen bets 700,000, Henson moves all in, and Nguyen quickly calls with {K-Clubs}{Q-Spades} for two pair, kings and sixes. Henson shows {9-Diamonds}{9-Spades} for two pair, nines and sixes. The two players are nearly equal in chips, so if someone doesn't bust, they will be crippled.The turn card is the {8-Hearts}, and Henson's railbirds give out a collective sigh at its resemblance to the nine.The river card is the {7-Hearts}, and Scotty Nguyen wins the pot with two pair, kings and sixes. As most of the crowd explodes into a cheer, Scotty Nguyen lets out a very deep breath. Ray Henson walks over to Nguyen and they shake hands while the chip stacks are counted down.Scotty Nguyen had 6.22 million, and Ray Henson had 6.075 million. Ray Henson is eliminated in 12th place, earning $476,926.Scotty Nguyen doubles up to about 15.5 million. Link to post Share on other sites
