The field has 452 entrants in it and is paying 48 spots. This year's event has topped last year's field. Just a quick gander around the Brasilia room here at the Rio and you'll see tons of big names professionals everywhere. The field is extremely stacked with some of the best players in the world, which should make for a great tournament for the next three days. There are currently 20 players already busted, with 432 remaining in the field. We should have all the prizepool information shortly.
