It can't be a Merge payout structure though because there isn't one pay jump that is randomly less than the last couple before it.

LOL_you if the film producer win the tournament

thx for the update Kev, this things gonna be sick

cant wait for it to start

Sick line up.. glad to see that they'll have live streaming for the entire event, not just the FT.

Just to clear a few things up from the other two threads about the deals that were made...

Hansen's 1st place seat is obviously a must play, is Deeb's 2nd place alternate seat a must play?
Also, even though there's already a list of alternates, is he 1st in line?

I'm not sure why Deeb didn't want or try to work the deal in his favor to take the seat.

Regarding the deal that PH made, I understand he wasn't in the tournament, so he's obviously taking the 1st place seat, with 1st - 8th place finishers getting different equity. So what % of himself does he have going into the One Drop if 1st - 8th make up 100%?

prizepool structure suck hard

This is nice.

They obviously wanted to make the 1st place as high as possible though..

Don't be bluffin Ruffin

Apparently I m the only one that likes the payout structure (as a railbird ). Sick payjumps and a massive first prize. playing heads up for 8 Megas is just insane.

LOL_Ruffin, level 0 thinker ftw. "I HAVE A STRAIGHT"

edit: btw, I guess congratulations to Deeb for shipping a cool million

1st - 7th should cash.. If they capped it at 52 instead of 48then paying 8 or 9 spots isn't that bad imo.. Any MTT that's under 50 players usually pays only top 5-6 afaik..

I was hoping for more than the final table.

i hope a non poker pro wins so 18 megas gets sucked out of the poker economy
