Grats to you, but I don´t think that I really understand what you say. What did you exaxtly won ? A percentage of winnings that PKR pros will maybe win in a tourney ?

YES - but, by "win in a tourney" he means the Main Event. As in the WSOP Main Event $10K buy and many millions of $$$ first prize.

It's certainly a strange tournament, but a funny way to make you follow that main event . Good luck to you and if that's the case, good luck to those 3 pros so that they can finnish in the first 3 places of the tournament ... you'll be rich !

So if the pro's from PKR win money in the main WSOP you will get paid ? How much is the percentage each one of you will get? Its for sure the most weird prize ive heard so far

Ha ha, good stuff Callie. I like the idea behind that tournament you entered. It's a neat idea having a tournament where the prize pool is a BAP contract to a much more valuable tourney. Almost like a qualifier but as an added bonus you hire on a pro to play for you. How much would the buy in have been if you didn't have a ticket?

Ah, okay, so if I understand correct if 1 PKR pro cashes in this tourney, 5% of his winnings will be paid out to the 100 players which won this price. So it will be 0,05% to each of the price money he won. Correct ?

Thats really a weird prze actually, i needed to read your thread twice to realize what you were talking about lol
But i also must agree you must be really lucky, i mean they could win a lot of money and you could get a really nice part of the profits, in other words you could say you staked the PKR pros
On the other hand i know other poker platforms like pokerstars or party poker are making freerolls where players can win packages to event like ept or wsop, i think thats a bit cooler Anyways good luck to you... and the PKR pros!

very noice way of looking at it, hopefully they run good and i think they should most likely, what kind of % do you get off their prizes? if its anywhere near even 5% and one of them cash your looking at a pretty pennie, i think min cash is around 20k or so
