Does anyone know what will happend if there wasnt 16384 or more players registred in chriss moneymaker all in challange? Because thats minimum amount of players in that tournament and so far there are 3255 players registred, and I doubt it would reach minumum number of players.... That tournament is part of pokerstars big promotion, and winner goes to final round for 1M$, but what will happend if there isnt enough players? They cannot cancel it because winner have to be 1 of 6 players at final round

This is a good question, but since the missions have just started, i would assume that there is enough days left to fill the min, the good thing is if they only get the min, then everyone gets paid

hey sthep you shouldn't worry about such nonsense as the minimum required number of players not reached for a big promotion. the only thing that is needed is a small tweak on the "random" number generator and voilà- you have your say 20K players that are "randomly getting 54off day and night

Hope not wouldnt be very professional. ..if anything i think theyll change payouts. If not sure be alot of unhappy ppl. I imagine a few ppl lost a fair few $ tryin to win with that hand lol some of us had it easy but others probably not so much.

I hope too that they will make changes to prize pool and keep all players... I think they cannot refund all players because there is one seat for million tournament included... So they cannot refund... I think other option is to move tournament 1 day behind... or something like that...

How things change in such short periods of time. As of now, there are over 10,000 entrants into this event. I'm still waiting to be dealt 5d4s and so am hopeful that in the next couple of days it will pop along into my pocket and I can convert it into a win. See you at the felts.
This is nice, with a prize pool of $160.000 with less than 16.000 players registered the expected value is over $10
Depending on which level you're playing, you can afford to shove this 5d4s hand a few times, in order to get it...
I've got all 6 tickets without much effort (won the 5d4s at the first try without opposition), and played about 1100 hands on NL2 with a 26.2 bb/100 winrate, to manage it.
