Mark will be fairly happy with that.
This tournament is going to attract thousands of runners. $100 satellite (with a decent prize pool on top of that) for the WSOP ME!
Deepstack, open to all on BlueSQ. What"s the maximum they allow for a tournament?
Anyway, my point was that it"s unlikely with a field that large, that one of the people who can catch Mark (namely Wayne) will final table, and it will be much harder to get into the points than through a field of a few hundred runners.
So although Wayne prefers the online format - the odds are stacked in Mark"s favour (IMHO).
