There will also be probably 20k+ runners in this event, if it pans out. Which means your odds of winning a package are about as much as winning the main event

I wouldn't waste my time with this. There would probably be 20,000+ people in it. No telling how many hours will have been put into the tournament for the winners. Sitting at a computer for hours upon hours playing a tournament in which I have a 1 in 4000 chance at winning doesn't seem to fun.

I think they're expecting more like 60,000 players... DUCY?

Yea obviously they are expecting that but I give FT a lot less credit to put together an unheard of number of entrants than say Pokerstars. They should break through their guarantee...but again its like punching a lottery ticket at that point, not worth it.

how is 5x12k ME tickets for $1 not worth it? you can play other games at the same time and its a ****ing dollar! run good, take the 12k/ME and run it up/win the ME!!!
