Day 1 end up after you win your first table ?? that's it ??

and then Day 2 is the same ??

so to do that they must block the maximum entrants and know already what's for the 1st 2nd 3rd $$$$ ???

How many would end up cashing if this was filled to the max?

And 11-handed? Blegh.

[Mr.JR]

I'm going to guess the pay all the winners of the 1st event, and then the final table.

Might pay top 3 of 2nd table.

N/M had to go back and read the website for details on the shootout.

Holy shiz! 200k?? That has to be a missprint. All events except for 2 of them were dollar for dollar starting chips.

i would imagine that blinds increase across the 3 days. hence the 2k in starting chips on day 1, 20k starting chips on day 2, and 200k on day 3.

200k x 10 players = ~ total chips in play for a 1,000 player field.

LoL thanks. Read my post above, I corrected myself.

In on table 4

[Jourdain]

That's what they call a shoot out:

Sebok eliminated:
Joe Sebok is eliminated on the first hand of the tournament. He was all-in on a flush and straight draw and was beat by two pair.

Very first hand, they just started a minute ago..
