WSOP payout structure

Monday, July 11, 2005

WSOPThere's a good video over at CardPlayer with the WSOP tournament director explaining how they came up with this year's payout structure.

I like the fact that they decided to make everyone at the table a millionaire, and how they pay 1/10 players. It's also great that if you make the bubble you make some money, you don't just get your buy-in back.

You can view the video here.

    P.S just for future reference... payout structure, determined on or by "expectation", is based on the 'harmonic series' structure,
    1+1/2+1/3+1/4+ ... + 1 /(n-1) + 1/n
    where n is number of players making the final table.If you like I can give you references on this.
