Default ESPN\'s TOC

I was wondering if Greg Raymer where to win this $2m event, would he keep it, or would he still have to pay out a % to his backers. Thew way i see it, entry into this tournament is part of the first prize for winning the WSOP, so his backers would be entitled to a cut.

I was wondering the same thing. Obviously, he's only sitting there because of his win. So you'd think yes, but I know very little about such arrangments.

He's playing terrific, again. Go Greg!

Way to push blind and give lederer an easy decision. Sorta dicks over everyone else though.

Huh. I liked his previous call with 98s.

But I didn't like that one. I don't know what the blinds and bet sizes were, was he getting correct odds?

It's strange watching and not already knowing. Although I have read the rumors and right now the most common rumor seems a distinct possibility.
Also how much do think ESPN had to talk them into playing war, Trouble, and Battleship and what were the $takes?

Greg has posted that his backing deal ended with the WSOP. He's all on his own with his new big ass roll.
