PartyPoker Million
 

First semifinal round starts in half an hour. There are only 490 players. That means the site took in only about $550,000. They need around $1.1 million minimum to break even.


Also, straight odds of winning the cruise are 19:1 or 29:1 depending on whether you start at a table with 3 players or 2. Huge overlay for the players considering the prize is $500, a $2,000 cruise and an $8,000 entry fee into the $1 million guaranteed-to-first-place limit hold em tournament on board ship.
