Level 10 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

With registration and reentry now closed, this fourth event on the WNYPC schedule officially drew 72 entries.

On paper it's on overlay, which means there is not enough in the prize pool to cover the $10,000 guarantee and the Niagara Falls Poker Room will have to throw in the rest.

However, do a little math and you might see things differently.

Players pay $150 for each entry, with $125 going to the prize pool and $25 set aside as an entry fee. A total of 72 players make $9,000 going into the prize pool.

So basically there's an overlay of $1,000. However, with $1,825 in fees collected, the room doesn't exactly have to go out of pocket to cover it.

In reality, it could be considered more of a fee rebate than an overlay.
