I've been playing some pennybuy tournaments at 888 poker and one tournament just started and the opening stacks at my table where as follows:

Code:
***** 888poker Hand History for Game 785648623 *****
10/20 Blinds No Limit Holdem - *** 25 08 2022 13:03:40
Tournament #218365018 $0.01 - Table #15 9 Max (Real Money)
Seat 10 is the button
Total number of players : 9
Seat 1: V*****6 ( 1,000 )
Seat 2: s*****l ( 1,000 )
Seat 3: K*****1 ( 1,000 )
Seat 4: K*****0 ( 1,000 )
Seat 5: x*****4 ( 1,000 )
Seat 6: E*****4 ( 1,000 )
Seat 7: A*****t ( 1,000 )
Seat 9: D*****X ( 1,000 )
Seat 10: v*****r ( 26,000 )
The player in Seat 10 in the opening hand of the tournament started with a stack 26 x everybody else!
I searched my hand histories and the same player appears in another tournament with a stack of 28,250 just 18 minutes into the tournament.
Usually in these tournaments you can rebuy and get 5,000 chips or double rebuy and get 10,000 so it is just feasible that the player won these chips rather than starting with 26,000 and winning 2,250.
The history from this second tournament is below.
Code:
#Game No : 501606125
***** 888poker Hand History for Game 501606125 *****
125/250 Blinds No Limit Holdem - *** 22 08 2022 12:21:33
Tournament #218183306 $0.01 - Table #5 9 Max (Real Money)
Seat 4 is the button
Total number of players : 9
Seat 1: v*****r ( 28,250 )
Seat 2: n*****8 ( 113 )
Seat 3: C*****a ( 5,103 )
Seat 4: E*****4 ( 10,555 )
Seat 5: S*****6 ( 204 )
Seat 6: s*****s ( 542 )
Seat 7: f*****4 ( 4,773 )
Seat 9: 4*****l ( 539 )
Seat 10: x*****4 ( 173 )
Has anyone ever seen something like this before?
