the MAIN EVENT has got to be one of the thoughest tourneys of poker IMO to get to 1st. or even in the money

its 10k so peopel dont wanna blow theire money. and the peopel that won sattelites had to have some skill. plus we got pros and fish and people in between,


I thin kits tough because of all the peopel of all kinds there..but it shoudl be fun. I dont knwo what you all are talking abou tto say its soft...its not that easy.

Have you played in the main event? Because I have heard firsthand and through others varying quite widely in skill levels that this is the softest live tourney w/ a buy in greater than 1,000... Hmmm... ya I suppose that it's tough to get first... perhaps the ridiculous size of the field might have something to do with this??? what a retarded post

GL hitting the (big one). 1st

luck becomes a factor in this tourney aswell. I have never played it but you cant just fold yourself outta day 1 and hope to make it in the money w/o some risky moves.

The size of the field is one reason why I think ( never been there) it is tough.

Jetto, you're nuts. The ME is super soft. A big field doen't mean it's tough...it's soft. Soft like marshmallows.

[Jetto]

yea but if it is "soft" then why the hell aint pros raking up the $$$ there?

SO this tourney is 80+% luck and 20 % skill?
