How much is the WSOP ME Championship worth over the course of a year?

[Greg (FossilMan)]

I'm lazy, and slow even when I work hard. ;-)

I keep trying to make time for it, and thought I would get a lot done this month and next. Then, we went and bought a house in Raleigh, NC, and I'm busy with all the hassles of moving. sigh.

Joe should be able to pick up at least half a million in the upcoming year in endorsement deals and other such stuff. He might pick up more like 1 million. If he picks up more than that, then he did some really good dealmaking, IMO.

Gross? Are you talking tourney buy-in's etc or just "pocket money"?

I'm talking the total value of the endorsements and such you get. Thus, if PokerStars buys me into a tournament for 10K, I count that as 10K of "money I got afterwards for winnign the WSOP".

Do you or your wife have family there?

Welcome to Raleigh Greg! We will be proud to have you in our midst. North Carolina is a great place to live.

Greg,

Any hints on what your book will be about? Just poker tips or "a year in the life of a poker champion?"

Or a combination of both?

Thanks,

DD

Can't wait to read it.

Unless things have changed, I believe it's a tournament essay book based on his past 2+2 posts.
