The second $1 million buy-in One Drop event starts next week.Two years ago the organisers had to turn people away from this event – which is really surprising when you think about it.Most notably, this time around more pro poker players have already confirmed for this event who had not played last time

Hi, everybody.
I can understand, why such rates. Strong the world of it there was a wish to try willies. None of the mortal can't and hardly will want to make such rate. Though as they say "At rich the whims"

Right now, the pro-recreational split is looking like it might be weighted towards the pro poker players, much more so than in 2012. 29 of the 48 (60%) of the 2012 field were pro players, and right now 29 of the 42 current confirmed (69%) players are pros. If we did have such a big concentration of pro players, it makes the question whether this event is a particularly profitable investment for the many poker pros who will have bought pieces of fellow players.

More and more high stakes stakers saw the potential of this event and are willing to sponsor some pros to participate since the outcome could be great.
I guess this is the reason for which we have more players than on the first event.

Scarcely to those players at which bags with a money success is needed ))) they are perfectly celebrated the forces. Beginnings players need patience, will-power and faith in itself.

For pro players i do not think it's a problem that they play with money that aren't from personal funds...
Even on wsop events there are players that are staked, so it's mot something really uncommon. The good thing is that we'll gave some good action to watch
