Jerry Yang playing $120 super satellites

Are you kidding me? You win 8 million plus and you can't afford to pay 25k to buy into a tournament? |

Its not really that unusual. I've saw Mark Seif playing the satellites in Tunica before.

Re: Jerry Yang playing $120 super satellites
and if u think about it
consider taxes which will take a decent chunk add the half million minimum he donated to charities and the house he bought in fresno...wouldnt be surprised if that takes at least half the 8 million |

Re: Jerry Yang playing $120 super satellites
hellmuth was at the table next to me in one of the $2,650 supers to the WPT championship. Satelliting into 25k buyins, or at least trying, isn't "beneath" a big pro. In fact, the only reason you wouldn't is if it would cut you out of extremely juicy side action.
Actually that weekend I saw Johnny Chan, Todd Brunson, Carlos Mortenson, PH, shannon elizabeth, tony cousineau, kirk morrison and several more that aren't coming to mind just in the satellites I played. |
