Thanks Johnny.

$50/$500=10.00%
$40/$500=08.00%
$60/$1000=06.00%

AMIRITE?

No, there is probably an additional 3%-5% for staff so add a minimum of 3% more to your numbers.....

Is this 18+ or 21+?

[/ QUOTE ]

21+

[JohnnyGroomsTD]

in a way, yes.
550 is the total cost of the event. 50/550=.09 (9%)
so 9 percent of your money goes to the house. I gues it's a difference in methodology

[JohnnyGroomsTD]

3% will be withheld fo dealers and staff. Standard practice.

We will be using the old style adjustment of the blinds. I prefer the other way, but what can you do....

I dunno, what can we do? Maybe ask Steve Lipscomb on our behalf just for the sake of it?

So they make everybody happy by running the Bellagio tournament through, only to turn around and not do it again after it worked so well? I understand it was a "test" run, but that blows.

Mike Matusow is convinced the structure of WPT finals is changed permanently.

Thanks Johnny,

I was just thinkin' about it like going to a bookie in the old days. ie lay 110 to win 100 (like payin' $10 juice to gamble for a $100)

I haven't placed a bet in years and don't know if it is still applicable or ever was for that matter.
