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

After winning 7.5 million, how much is the WSOP ME championship worth over the course of a year?

How much sponsorship money, book deals, speaking engagements, etc can this year's winner expect to take in?

This is incorrect. Last year's total was, in fact, 3.50 American. With an increase in poker commercials and the willingness of some players to spend long periods of times in frigerators, the actual total for this year is expected to be closer to 3.75 American.

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.

Thank you, Greg.

Your answer settles a bet between myself and a friend of mine over how much the title was worth in the following year.
