Is that correct? I understood that Greenstein won the whole million.

Icky structure. Sixty minute levels? Yeah, no thanks. If you're going to have a buy-in this large, you need at least 120 minutes or even 180. Also the "some table matchups" in the ad are just too good to be tru(ly random), which earns another thumbs-down.

Oops, my bad, this is for the Poker Quest thing.

Thanks for clarifying the math. It was late when I posted. I think I counted the percent taken out from the home club and the players at the satellite twice lol. I don't know if it would be possible for an amatuer to win the whole thing anyway with so many good players concentrated but of course you never know.
