Default Re: How much does someone make for being sponsored by a poker site?

Hachem was the perfect storm. ME had just more than doubled in attendance for the second straight year, TV ratings for WSOP and WPT were through the roof and Stars had just spent two years establishing itself as the place where players become world champions. Losing Joe would have sunk their entire marketing campaign. 7 million isn't all that much considering what rested in the balance.
