A few questions for Raymer, other pros, or anyone else in the know...

-What is the 'rake' at the WSOP? In other words, what part of the $10,000 does not go toward the prize pool?

-And do you think that the exposure you might get on ESPN to promote yourself and therefore endorse products is worth more than the rake you pay?

-How much money do you think the average WSOP winner can make simply due to his newfound celebrity by endorsing products and doing advertising? Obviously, the WSOP Tourney of Champions was a nice bonus for Greg this year- I'm not sure if they'll have this every year, so feel free to include that in your answer, but at least tell us that you are including it. And, Greg, I understand if this question is too personal, but how much money do you expect to get from your book?

-By being loud and getting yourself known ala Mattias Anderson, Dutch Boyd, etc....Do you think you are getting a lot of extra money in possible endorsements or stuff like that?
