    Talk about silly, give them all 3 million chips starting stacks, but start it at 3000/6000 + 1000 ante.

    Could they not have just given them 500 BB at 25/50 lol... no that just wouldn't do.

    Something inside me wants Hellmuth to win it! and im not sure why...

    I think Mercier would be my favourite though...

    With the standard being so 'polorazied'(?), World class, or total amateur, I'd expect the table draw/s to have a big say in who wins!!

    Galfond @ 22/1 ftw!

    Most of you probably know this, but you always get 3x your buy-in in chips at all WSOP tournaments, so $1m=3m chips.

    Would've been much funnier if they started at 25/25 blinds like they do for $1500 tournaments.

    He's the guy from the big game who was winding up hellmuth!

    He's just a rich mad businessman isn't he.
