Wsop update and numbers:

10,000 buy in main event started 8 July with 7221 players

Plays down to 9 players Monday 17 July and then 2 days off final 9 players come back Thursday 20 July and then play down to 6, next day play down to 3 and Saturday the final 3 play until the end which could last 10 minutes or 12 hours

They start playing at 5pm west coast time staring Thursday and same on Friday and Saturday. They have 90 minute dinner break some where in there I think, depends on how fast things happen... maybe since it's a 5pm start the last few days no long breaks, just short 15 minute breaks very few hours


Today stated with 85 players at 11am and now it's 9:30pm now and 35 players are left and should stop at 2-2:30am so 14 hour poker days.

They used to play down to 9 and then take few months off and all 9 would come back in November for 3 days. . That was not good and ESPN with their infinite wisdom changed it back to normal. Who wants to wait 4 months get payment ? If someone is on a hot streak they just stop ? Kinda like basketball, very streaky at times.


Winner get 8.1 million
2nd gets 4.7
3rd gets 3.5
4....... 2.6
5........ 2 million
6.........1.6
7.....,,,1.4
8.........1.2
9.........1 million

So the difference between 1st and 2nd is huge

1084 players will make some money out of the 7221 that started

There's some very nice motor coaches in the back were some players have brought and go take naps, private chefs, sleep over night fully powered by huge generators they brought in. These are something very nice just like homes.

No girls are playing, just men are left.
