Yep, no structure sheet on WSOP site yet. FWIW......
We had a similar event at the Aussie Millions last month, but instead of bracelet winners, it was Australian Hall of Fame players. Can't remember the exact structure but the format was a little odd...... all entries played standard NLHE until we got down to 9 times the number of Australian Hall of Fame players who entered. (All HoF players had to be pre-registered so numbers were confirmed beforehand).
We then redrew for seats, and the HoF players then joined the event, one on each table. They were given an average sized stack to start. That table then played as a shootout with the table winners all going to a final table.
This event was a $550 entry (for comparison, WSOP Bracelet Bounty is $560) and the bounties were $1K each.
It was a one day tourney, with half hour levels and by the end of level 4, the field had been halved. Not a particularly great event but the attraction was for newbies having the chance of playing on the same table as HoF players; probably added 30% to the field.
Maybe the WSOP Bracelet Bounty event will be similar.........
