That is a great article. Do you really think that Hellmuth, Lederer, Negreneau, and Chan couldn't hold their own in the top game?

I think Negreanu has proven that he definitely can.

negreanu said in an interview that he is up over $1 million in that game. in other words, he hasn't proven anything.

At the highest stakes they pay a small timecharge, under $25.

Got this from google, the link was broken, but it looks like they pay either $10 an hour or $10 every half hour (probably every half): Poker Forum Search...

the time charge is $10 per half hour. By comparison the 30/60 time charge is $6 per half [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img].

$10 per half hour per player = $160-$200/hour.

But there must be some serious security on that game that the house has to cover. I wouldn't think the house does so well.
