Days 1a and 1b have seen 218 and 305 entries, respectively, which adds up to 523 total entries. That’s an impressive number, but there’s a $1 Million Guarantee on this event, which means one thing: if there are fewer than 477 entries tomorrow, there will be an OVERLAY!
There may be no greater value in tournament poker than a prize pool overlay. It simply means that no matter how many entries there are tomorrow – up to 477 – the gross prize pool will be a million dollars!
If there are MORE players tomorrow, well that’s great too, because every player after the 477th just ADDS to the total prize pool you’re playing for!
This is the definition of Win-Win-Win. There’s value for players if there are fewer than 477 entries tomorrow, you win if there are exactly 477 players, and you win if there are more than 477 players!
