Well, she didn't say that exactly... I pretty much quoted her directly. But the implication is that yes, she doesn't expect big fields.

I would expect that this is because of two things:

1) This is the first major tournament series that the Wynn has attempted, and

2) The average buy-in's are larger than most casual players are willing to part with. If the events were in the $200-$500 range, I'd expect they'd sell out and then some, but I guess they're going for a more "serious" clientelle.

I'm playing in 4 of the events... if they average 200 players/tournament I'll be happy.
