Pros vs Invitees Discussion

Level 8 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
$250,000 Triton Invitational
$250,000 Triton Invitational

The tournament chip counts currently show the top seven players in the chip counts are Invitees, playing separately in the Invitee side of the tournament.

Players such as Adrian Mateos and Jesse Lonis were discussing the format, with invitees allowed two re-entries as opposed to the pro's one, and the Return on Investment (ROI) for each side.

"The stakes are so high at the final table though," said Mateos.

"Who would have to go over there to make there then?" asked Daniel Negreanu.

"I'd love to play over there," said Kristen Foxen.

"If you get to play over there, I'll play over there," replied Danny Tang.

"What qualifies you for the Invitee side, Kristen?" asked Negreanu.

"I'll just say that my husband plays poker!" she replied.

"That would make every woman in America eligible," joked Lonis.
