What They're Playing For

Level 5 : 100/200, 25 ante

Registration has been closed and the numbers are in. A total of 1,001 entrants, up 136 players from last year, created a prize pool of $4,704,700. The top 117 players will be paid out.

The first place prize is $952,694 and just making the final table will be worth $67889. A min-cash will be worth $8,939 and the top 90 players will earn a five-figure cash.

The final table alone will payout over $2.7 million. As far we can tell it's a record field and prize pool for the event.
