I'd still rather play. Isn't it a freeroll for the players??

No, $20k buy-in.

The craziness doesn't stop there however, as at 8:00am I have to be at Wynn to play in a live tournament that will air on Fox Sports Net. It's a $20,000 buy in invitation only tournament being thrown by the people at Full Tilt.

An additional fun twist to the already unique live event I‘m told, is that while Howard Lederer won't be playing in the event as he doing the commentary, he will be playing a heads up match at the conclusion of the tournament.

Who he plays depends on the voters. Apparently this is how it works: there will be a poll conducted throughout the event where you can vote for who you want to see Howard play!

I don't know all the details about the match as I just learned about it tonight, but I am told that the match will likely turn into a one hour show of it's own which could be a lot of fun.
