It was a scheduled tournament, not a sit and go.

There was a book about a guy who played 100k/200k with a billion dollars or something. Some texas banker.

Number of tables has nothing to do with whether or not its a sit n go.

OK...

1. Is their a (famous) poker player who has a BANKROLL of $1 million or more? NOT ANDY BEAL, HE IS NOT A POKER PLAYER

2. Surely there must be - the pros (like Ivey) play high stakes cash games with pots worth millions of dollars. The "rules" of poker would say that they therefore must have an adequate Bankroll of Billion dollars....?

3. There is about to be a $10m buy-in Sit n Go with 6 players (Ivey, Gus etc...) which backs up point 2.

4. The organisers of the $10m tourny plan to do a $25 million Sit n Go in 2006 and a $100m in 2007.

LINKS:

1. 1st Poker Billionaire

Liquid poker forum post about the $10m tourny

Any info would be appreciated. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
