WCOOP Event# 1 update

We started todays $215 NL 6 handed tournament with a whopping 7,217 players! That is a major increase from last years opening event. The tournament pays 1080 spots with 1,080th paying $303 (gross). To show a $1,000 profit I have to make it to 168th or better, to show $3,000 in profit I have to make it to 36th, 9th pays $9,021, 6th pays $23,686 and 1st is $212,179.

As of now we've played for 2 hours and I have my starting stack of 3,000 chips up to 5,500. We're down to 3,344 right now so plenty of peole have dropped, but when we come back from break the blinds will be 75/150 and with 30 minute limts there's still a long way to go.
