@recentpoker Thanks. Follows exact golden ratio statistical formula we use. As entries go up, % goes down. Think, 1130% ROI is most ever.

@WWECHEF No? 1,130 times your investment in 4 days isn't good enough? Most ever for a poker tourney.

@jonathanlensch Look at it this way. 1,130% ROI, following our golden ratio by place. Spread it out to community. 2241 players to pay.

It's the principle of what goes up, must come down The more you pay (a record 2,241) the less for top. Winner gets 1,130 ROI, Highest ever

@audavidb So Jacobson gets $10mil - 1,000 times buy in. This winner gets 1,130 times buy in. Golden ratio of all standard WSOP payouts.

@jaredjaffee21 @WWECHEF It's the exact payout used for every other event. Standard payout. No event has paid out 2,241 players before.

@HankDahTank @ChilliGirl13 So, wait we should give it to one at the expense of the other 2,240? Is that what you want?

@LukeWeidner @wsopSUITd Luke, look at the payout of any event last 5 years. Do the math. It'll get you to the same #.

@migcom Well they would be worse off it there was no money for anyone else but first, because everyone can't win the event.

@VanessaRousso Because we have to pay 2,241 people...about 10 times more than most tourneys pay. Look at all places, it will make sense.

@dDeoxyribo @wsopSUITd @WSOPTD When did we say we're going to trick up prizepool? They're playing for 1130 times the buy-in, that's the #

@DarryllFish @DunhamTCB2 @ianohara2 So you don't see how when you have to still pay 10% of field & field size increases, %'s must decrease?

@Clovis8 @Kevmath #'s are percentages. That's 115 times buy-in. This wasn't a $1500 or $10000 buy-in.

@TWKftw @berkey11 But this tournament is 4 times the size of anything in modern era, no? Same math as 99% of events last 5-6 years at WSOP.

@berkey11 Standard in the math sense. Just adjusted on standard % basis as all others we do up or down based on entries.
