    I heard that 1st place is only getting 10 million this year as opposed to 12 million last year.  And, there are more players this year, they must be paying out more spots.

     They changed the payout structure so all the people who make it in the money get more.

    They are expecting the total to be in the 5,500 to 6,500 range.  Been 1,500 - 1,800 for each day so far.  Not sure where this 8,000+ is coming from.

    Hey Spoccy, take a look at the link I left, that is where I get my info.  Top to bottom, left to right, a group of words is a sentence.  Take Tylenol for any headaches, Miadol for any cramping.  If this still doesn't help, contact us, we will walk you through the article.

    CrusCrnshw...I wonder if Adam Weiss is related to Jeff Weiss? (currently 2nd...1.5mil chips)

    The player I am rooting for is Bart Hanson (730k).  I believe he was the commentator for "Live at the Bike".
    Seems like a good guy.

    Other then that, I will be rooting for Gus Hansen, as he would surely make it an interesting final table.

    The money to be won is crazy once you hit the top 80 or so.  It goes up 25k each 10 spots or so.
    Everyone in the top 50 earns 200k plus...nice!

    GL to your buddy.

    Just read this...

    With 72 players left, there is still $37,866,039 left in the prizepool. If everyone agreed to chop the rest of the money, each player would receive $525,917.

    By comparison, ninth place is worth $525,934 -- just $17 more. The numbers just get more compelling.

    If I was playing, all I would say is "Chop, Chop!" lol
