| | | | Just looked and the minimum amount of players is 4,001 so that would be 4,001,000 FPP's in the prize pool.
How much is a FPP worth: $215/13,500 FPP = 0.01592592592592592592. Let's round that up to 1 FPP is $0.016.
The prize pool worth in FPP's with 4,001 players would be 4,001,000 x $0.016 = $640,160
With 12,000 players (max) the prize pool would be worth 120,000,000 x $0.016 = $1,920,000
Even with the maximum allowed this tournament would be a good deal.
Buy in is 10,000 FPP x $0,016 = $160. And 4,000th place prize money is $180. If not too many players register this is doable for everyone on this site. With all the satellites towards this event I'm sure a few can make it. | |

| | | | I think I'll use the 250fpp satellites (to the 1250fpp qualifier) as a way to earn some FPPs cheaply

| | | | Anyone who wants to practice rebuys cheaply try out the 10 FPP rebuys to the 1250s

| | | | I played in the great Tournament but i wasn really succesfull 
My finally place was 5500, so not bad but not enough to win money 
I won the place in the "Freeroll" via a Satellite with 10 FPP buy in so it was not so bad for me but i think it was possible to come in the money
