I Lol'ed at this estimated prize-pool
Attachment not found.
This made me LMFAO
As per me FB:
""Ummm...Two major Alberta tournaments scheduled across same time block, 3 hr drive apart, with a 5k scheduled 2 days after EPT Barcelona ME, a main event that clashes with PokerStars Stardust Poker Mansion 300k GTD sponsored ME and WCOOPs starting 1 day after....#whowritesthisshat. Congrats in advance Calgary on a great local event. $3,800,000 in estimated prize-pools ($1,300,000 more than Canada's largest events), any over unders on that? I say hitting 25% would be impressive."
"My logic; 2010 was biggest year at $1,700,000+, 2011 was down 70%. 2012 has big improvements, but ^^^^ working against it. $1,000,000 good, $2,000,000 miracle."

77 for $1,100 Mega Stack Event #2 Prize-pool = $73,150 up top $24,200
So far we are roughly $148,000 Not sure how much of first few supers t$s already put in play.
285 entries after 3 Events.
10 events total, Event 3 Ladies Underway.
Update: Player reports 51 in ladies, prize-pool approx 14k
Puts at ~$162,000 confirmed after 3. That's 30% of events. 30% of the flyer estimate is $1,140,000. Little off pace...Not quite negative a million so meh
FWIW predicted 70 for event 2 and 50 for 3. So close.
Tons of sats to 5k HU so I'll shoot high at 64 bracket; though after charity and staff percentage, that prize-pool would be roughly $279,864. bracket Drawing Monday I guess.
More to come.
So ~ $214,500. So just 3,585,000 to go to hit mark. There is a $300 Tuesday, might do good....
17 for 2k six max so like ~ $34,000
Let's round up and add 64000
Nearly 1/10 of way to advertised estimate.
That would draw out more players
estimated is ridiculous
Think they break $500,000. I thought 1 million would be good. I over estimated their over estimate.
-3.3 million, meh, was worth a shot....What's 87% between friends?
Math wise it's down 70% from 2010 if they hit 500k. 2011 was same math, but lower buy-ins. It appears 500k would be correct estimate.
