Not only No, but Hell No! Sure, a guaranteed $500K would be nice, but as Kurn mentioned, probably no way in hell would Harrah's allow it. In addition, I'm already pretty deep in the field and have made a pretty decent profit thus far (unless you did something incredibly silly earlier on in the WSOP like rebuy 48 times in the $1000 rebuy). I'm guessing that not only have I covered my expenses, I've made enough to put a BIG dent in the mortgage I have at home. So nope, no deal.

Daniel during the WSOP was quoted as to saying he wish the ME only paid 9 spots...

I think he said 40 mill for 1st, 20 mill for 2nd... something along those lines.

Anyways the point is that I think you should be playing to win and nothing more.

500K is nice but if I busted at 150th and won 40K, I could live with that.

OK, I added a part 2 of this poll in another thread.
Obviously this is not the direction I meant for this thread to take, But It's interesting none the less.
