    Whats tk sitting on atm gl to Ryan and tk just a question how many get paid and how do you fund this big buy ins?
    Posted by jaismith
    10pc of the field will get paid.

    The bubble usually bursts around midway thru Day 4, and the min cash is something like 19,000$

    Various ways into the main.  Online sats, live sats, selling action and of course just coming up with 10k$ of your own money and buying in direct.

    A lot of local card rooms/home games in America seem to run a league system too where they play normal tournies over the course of the year with the added value of a main seat.

    When online poker gets legalised in the US the fields could easily go over 10k.

    Speaking from experience, this is a huge factor in a lot of peoples exit.

    It seems like sitting at a poker table should be quite easy, but 12 hour days are really tiring, and all it takes is one mistake and you hit the rail.

    Just out of interest, when will we be able to see the coverage of the main event on youtube? Or is it live on ESPN or what?

    In 45 minutes we go for a 90 minute dinner break, and then return to 500/1000/100a.

    2 big names that have pretty decent stacks are Doyle Brunson on 190k and Erik Seidel on 150k.

    The UK's John Eames going along nicely on 95k

    Patiently bled down to 25,000.

    Then found

     AQhh

    Kid opens in front of me.

    I THREE BET (you hear me sunny boy, three bet) to 6,100.

    He calls.

    Flop of dreams......

     Jh5h3s 

    He checks, I bet, next case.

    Stole the blinds next hand for good measure with complete air, J kicker.

    37,000. Might yet make the dinner break, which is 50 minutes hence, with blinds 400-800/100.
