They aren't putting real money into the pot. You're not alone. I've often wondered how this came to be standard. [/ QUOTE ] Well, of course in every past WSOP every player bought 10K for his 10K so it kinda was dollars. Not this year though.

[ QUOTE ] Am I the only one who gets slightly annoyed when people say that tournament blinds are dollar amounts? Like "the big blind is 400,000 DOLLARS". No you moron, it's 400,000 CHIPS or just 400,000. They aren't putting real money into the pot. [/ QUOTE ] You're not alone. I've often wondered how this came to be standard. [/ QUOTE ] Because it is what the viewers want to hear. "OMG, this is a 10 million dollar pot!" "WOW, he just bluffed at that pot with 5 million dollars!" Its poker-tainment.

If that were the case and I was Jerry Yang, I'd cash out right now for $71M since first prize is only $8.25M.
