Jim,
You win $500 buy-in chips equal to what the buy-in is for the tournament the next day & a small amount of cash. In my case it was 3 buy-in chips & $140 cash.

I'm surprised you have not checked it out yet, a big CC & GTCC poker tournament winner & all! You have through the 18th of this month to come down & check out the action.

By the way, I had lunch with the current World Champion (Chris Ferguson) who won the big one last year ($1,500,000) during a break in the Razz tournament. I have known Chris for a couple of years now & winning the money has not changed him a bit. He is still the nicest guy in poker. His chip which is the add-on to the WSOP set will be released in the next 10 days or so! Andy - Las Vegas
