Wtf, HORSE gets lower turnout?

[shaniac]

I laid 5-4 on 225+, and I'm hearing they got less than 110 (last year was 168 iirc).

Decreased attendance is a sure sign that everyone in poker is busto.

[JP OSU]

fwiw, last year they got 143...

[hime]

Spencer Sun's blog says supposedly 146 this year.

[murph0110]

last year there were (i think) about a dozen or so internet qualifiers - several of this dozen from party....

this year, i think none from any sites???

There were 148 total entries into this year's tournament resulting in an enormous $7,104,000 prize pool. First place will be an astonishing $2,276,832, which is $492,192 more than Chip Reese took home for last year's first-place finish. If Daniel Negreanu were to take home the title, it would put him into first place on the WSOP all-time money list.

Another good sweat. I took 6-5 odds with the under at 150.

This can't possibly be right, can it? DN is currently 56th on the WSOP money list. Maybe it is supposed to be the overall all-time list? Also, does this means Joe Hachem is not playing the event (since he would also pass Gold on the overall money list with another $2 million) ?

Yes. Also, Negreanu dosen't have over $10 million in cashes @ the WSOP. More like all time $ list.

Correct. But only $2.056M in WSOP events, and only $1.3M in actual WSOP events (minus this "circuit event" nonsense)? I would have thought much more.
