Being a woman, the title. I can get WAY more then what 1st place is worth in endorsements alone.

Alot of ppl are under this impression but I hate to say that in this poker economy I do not think there are any sites itching to pay "WAY" more than 8-12 mil to sponsor a female champion.

I could be wrong but I think that if first place is a title and second place is 8-12 mil, then it would still be better for a woman to take the cash. Second place would still garner a lot of sponsorship interest and also I do not think that a woman could command a huge sum unless she is attractive on top of being a champion.

I dunno, just seems like sponsorship opportunities have plummeted and there is no real evidence that females are a viable customer target considering their lack of participation thus far.
