That's a bit weird mixing € and $ like that.. A $10K buyin even with 111 runners attracts a $1.1M prizepool + rebuy of $10K? or €10K? Not sure, it's written as € but that would be odd if the rebuy/addon was bigger than the original buyin.
At any rate, it's confusing when you jump from € to $ like that.. Just stick to one or write it out as both and as it is I am pretty sure it is erroneous anyway, since I am fairly sure its not gonna be a $10K buyin €10K addon.
