Gus at 800K and holding on for dear life. He's probably going to have a couple shove and shows in the near future.

Sarcasm, I assume?

He's a nit with little to no personality. Darn good poker player though.

That's odd....pokernews says he was eliminated in 111th place, yet he has 750K right now. Glad he's still in it though.

Close to 99% of the field gone. Average chip stack nearing 2M.

Actually, if you file as a pro, you should have to pay taxes on the split, if you file as an amateur it's a problem because they no longer allow you to use the correct tax form at Harrah's.

Sorry, quick typing, if you file as a pro, you should only have to pay your share of the the taxes.

No such thing as filing as a pro in the UK so everyone is an amateur.

Cmon guys. There is no way there is going to be a 36 way chop, and even if there was, there is no way with ESPN cameras rolling the guy winning would owe 3M in taxes.
