What do you think the ME championship is worth?

I'm not talking about the prize money. I mean in endorsements, books, freerolls, commercials, super market opening appearances etc etc etc

If you were totally backed and won getting none of the prize money what kind of career and yearly earnings do you think you could parlay that into?

This obviously has everything to do with the specific player who wins it.

For some, I could easily see the payoff exceeding the actual prize.

Easily over the 1st place prize

Do you think this is true for Robert Varkonyieiyieyeie? I think it depends alot on who actually wins.

I think the pre-poker boom, pre-ESPN mega coverage guys will be shortchanged which he is. In the current ESPN era I've got to think just winning is worth an awful lot. But a lot will have to do with the personality involved and how aggressively they market themselves. I would think a good agent/manager would be critical if you were really trying to profit from it.
