Re: Who came second in the 1971 WSOP?
[ QUOTE ]
I've noticed that in the early years of the WSOP, there was no rake. In 1979 for instance there were 54 players with a total prize pool of $540,000, which was split among the top 5 finishers. What's up with that, and when did this change?

that's because it was held for publicity. Benny actually paid half of the 10k for the players (ten or so) in the mid-70s.
