    Amazing at the growth over the past 2 years. Any guess on what the number of entrants will be for the $10,000 no-limit in 3 weeks time will be? I'll go on record as saying.......1,380.

    LOL ... you think there is an overlay in that tournament? Ever have a tournament where everyone agrees to chop before the first hand?

    I will predict 1800 for the main event.
  • AnonymousAnonymous
    whoa 1800? possible 2200+ ???
  • Dave ScharfDave Scharf
    They have stated that 2000 is max, but my sources tell me they might stretch it to 2200 if there is demand.
  • JayJay
    I'm betting that the max. will be reached...

    whoa, that would be a crazy 5 days of poker to try to survive in a group of +2000 players. I'd love to give it a shot though! Anyone know what the payout for first would be if we had $10,000 USD x 2000 players?
  • Dave ScharfDave Scharf
    The payout has only been published as high as 1600:

    I am guessing $5 million for 2,000 players?
