Do any of you see this as the first step in raising the $10k buyin to $20k?

My personall opinion is yes, I think that will happen. Matter of fact, I think that's already been decided.

I'd lay someone 6-1 odds that that the ME in 2008 will in fact be at least $20,000.

Accepted. Any amount to $25k.

Bets to be posted and held in escrow?

Holla, 2007 ME is already 20k. Its just the blind structure is 2x. Its essentially the same structure as last year but with different denominations. Sorta like a natural "inflation".

The ME is still a gret tournament....i think its like

40 on the patience scale. which is sorta "off the charts"

Actually 89.1 which is even farther off the charts. Past years (based on what was published in the PTF) was 75.24. Blind off time increased by about 45 minutes.

We are talking about the buy-in being $20k cash...not the starting chips.
