Sounds like fun! I will have to ask Bill if he wants to go. Can we create bounties for this one? LOL

Hi John,

Thanks for posting the info. Me and a buddy came up and played in the mega satellite for the freeze-out. $40 buyin to win a $160 voucher with 25% of the field winning a seat. In otherwords... no rake. I thought that was a pretty smart thing for you guys to do.

However, I've noticed something different about the upcoming mega satellite.
Your website states the mega is a $40 buyin to win a $100 seat w/ 25% of the entries winning a seat.

So for example:
60 players @ $40 = $2400
60 players @ 25% = 15 players winning a seat
15 players X $100 = $1500
$2400 - $1500 = $900 rake or 37.5% cut for the charity.

On top of that, the charity is going to cut 25% out of the $100 voucher for the main tourny. That's a total of 53% of the 2400 from the satellite raked. Dude, for real, I'm not trying to be an asshole here but if that isn't a raw deal then I don't know what is.

Please tell me there's a mistake somewhere...

I ended up finishing somewhere around 64 out of the 362 that showed up this year. I was hoping to make to the top 36 but my pocket 10's didn't hold up. I was a little disappointed at turnaround this year but I suppose that's to be expected with the economy and all.

The only issue I had this year was that the add-on could only be purchased during the break instead of anytime before and during the tourney. I had to spent the first 15 minutes of the break just waiting at my table to purchase my add-on.

[Hoops]

39 left at the start of day two. I'm sitting with 682,000. Are there any other bad beaters out there?

What? Did they actually stop play at midnight? Why wouldn't they just play until everyone reached the money.
