you can go there, buy the ticket and of to barcelona, even if you would enter the tourney stop dreaming of big payouts, what about the scenario where you pay $10 K to enter the tourney and walk away with nothing, like you get aa and someone goes all in with 26o just for fun- you call ang get sucked out by river str8 kinda expensive trip it would be

I like the payout structure.
Interesting to see Ilari still there. Never knew of him as much of a tourney player. I reckon his aggression could be nasty to deal with when your tourney life is in the balance.
Still, sucks to get to the FT and 'only' get 50000euros when the winner gets 20x that amount.

That's a really nice pay-out structure they have there. Interesting to see Ilari is still hanging in there. It'll be interesting to see where he's going to finish. I'd hope to see him at the final table. That would probably make it an interesting table to watch with a lot of game-turning pots.

Compared to other high rolle events i think they changed a bit the structure of prizes if you ask me... Also it's interesting to see so many important poker names at the tables but again Spain is beautiful this part of the year
