10k / person * 5800 people = 58,000,000 in chips

I believe that the biggest chips at the WSOP are $50K each. If everything was colored up to that level, that would still leave over 1000 chips on the table, or over 50 stacks of 20 chips, each stack being $1 million. That's a lot of chips in front of the final 2-3 people.
