KingAustin 0 Posted June 4, 2005 Share Posted June 4, 2005 so the field will be three times as large as last year but first prize only doubles? That sucks!!!I'm assuming they are playing out a LOT more places since the field is so damn huge. It's like 3 freerolls..except combined and professionals. :shock: Link to post Share on other sites

FrostyMcNugget 0 Posted June 4, 2005 Share Posted June 4, 2005 Besides 1st place netting $10 million dollars everyone that makes the final table will likely receive at least $1 million dollars. Link to post Share on other sites
monsterrain 0 Posted June 4, 2005 Share Posted June 4, 2005 The director of the WSOP said that if the event sells out, first prize will be 7.3 million, and every final table player will make a least a million. You can find the interview on pokerpages. Link to post Share on other sites

sirch1 0 Posted June 4, 2005 Share Posted June 4, 2005 I doubt that is really gonna be the payout. They never pay out ten percent anymore. Look at today's tounrey there were 2305 and they only paid 200 spots. That is like 8.7 percent of the field getting paid. I think the payout schedule will be quite a bit different than that.

I will respond tomorrow around 7:00pm EST.Any other takers? Link to post Share on other sites

All of the wsop circuit events aren't ten percent i don't see why this would be any different. Link to post Share on other sites
PokerDealer2005 0 Posted June 5, 2005 Share Posted June 5, 2005 It's right, I'm dealing the main event as well as the 5k nlhe buy in, the tournament director said 1st was right around 7.5 this yr. Link to post Share on other sites
21gambit 0 Posted June 5, 2005 Share Posted June 5, 2005 I love the fact that everyone at the final table becomes a millionaire. Thats got to put you in a purely Zen poker zone. Im at least making a cool mil, should I freak out about busting in 9th? Link to post Share on other sites
john kane 0 Posted June 5, 2005 Share Posted June 5, 2005 its got to be tough to play poker again after coming 2nd. you lose a heads up effectively worth $3.4 million and realistically the only ever chance you'll have of being a WSOP main event champion. Link to post Share on other sites
