Default Re: WSOP entry fee and inflation

I'd like to add some additional perspective. Doyle Brunson won his first $10K championship in 1976 and took home $220K, a mere 22 times the entry fee. This years winner will take home 500 times his entry fee. Even with inflation taken into account isn't this a much better deal for the winner?
