That is the price for the Main event turbo satellite so I'd say its wrong and is the free to enter with $10 rebuys

Really should up the guarantee with Event 1. Could easily make it 75k, 100k if you want to live on the edge.

[C_Bomb]

The only reason you set a guarantee is that you think it will hit it.

$75k maybe.

$100k no.

They made it $100k for the ANZPT opener and I'm pretty sure it didn't exceed the guarantee.

They also made a mistake in not retracting a $200k guarantee for a $550 event in APPT and they were $26k short.

They are also giving the winner of that even an Aussie Millions seat I believe so that may be enough to generate some extra re buys.

I'd like to see them put up $250k on the main event, but I don't think that will happen anytime soon. Series 7 was the first to not hit $250k and I think with all of the series on around the place at the minute, the market is kind of flooded. It used to be that a bunch of interstate live and online guys would come in for it, but now there are so many events on that they don't have to travel so much if they want a live fix.

Even if they just put a $50k first place guarantee that would be great.

I do recall this happening!

[Monkey]

they made it 100k grnt once and didnt make it, so 50k is all we'll be seeing for a while

With the shane warne thing just happening I cant imagine a bumper crowd for this main event, especialyl since AM is just around the corner, but we'll see I guess

550 would be a good turnout

Can't imagine why?

[dalek]

Finished top 20 in event 1. 1st and 2nd paid almost the same, little over 12k, but 1st got an AM seat. If it was 20 + seat for 1st, and 12 for 2nd, fine, but I and others were not impressed with 1st and 2nd winning the same cash.
