Default Did the satellite for the $50K HORSE get off tonight?

Last year, they announced a few of these, but they never got enough money in the pool to actually award a seat, so if you entered, you were just playing for lammers. Did the one earlier today (Tuesday afternoon) get going with enough people to actually award at least one $50K seat?

all the players i spoke with are boycotting the horse ss. It seems the srtucture and betting rounds are insanely fast. 12 minutes per game and levels go up every 24 minutes. Combine that with over 200 juice per person and you can see why no one will play.

Does anyone know of a thread where people are speculating how many players will enter the 50k tourney? I'm excited cause I want this thing to go off huge.

The report I received from somebody who played in it was that it started with about 11 players, but the late entrants resulted in a total of about 30 players. So yes, they did award one seat and some change.

He said it was a total clusterfck, with dealers having trouble dealing the games, and new players constantly getting moved into tables.

Jeez, that's like 5 hands per game. Seat position would be a huge factor.
