They wanted to keep the buy-in low and increase the field, but give the pros an edge because they could afford a bigger risk compared to the 2-7 specialists you find online. if i knew Daniel I would have told him something not so nice, but it was pointless at the time - its obvious his intentions were to make a good situation for himself, not the field or the WSOP itself

I assume the poster thought your comment meant that Daniel had created an event to get himself a bracelet.

I just meant that I thought DN said this was one of his best games. With the smaller field I just thought it gave him a better chance at it.

But I don't get the feeling Admo sweats too much of anything.

Was/am most concerned about this event, the NLHE rebuy events, and event 54 ($5k NL 2-7 Draw Rebuy)

I can assure you that was not how I perceived it, I am leaving out details because I'm not trying to make this into a bash Daniel post, but the important thing is he insinuated that the structure was designed this way to give himself an edge.

No need to worry about this one anymore, he's been eliminated.

1) The payout structure sucks! Most players have spent in the 6k to 8k range in this field, but payouts start at 5,414 - below what the average total buyin for the finalists will be! Average rebuys should be considered in this calculation, I'd rather see WSOP management drop off 21-24th place and increase the prize pool across the board proportionally.

There were 209 entries and a prize pool $721,804, which is an average buy-in of $3,453.60, plus whatever went into the rake. The min pay-out is thus about 1.5x the buy-in, which seems pretty standard.

Thanks. Anecdotal evidence seemed to show that most players were in for 5k or more.
