The numbers for this Main Event are a little lower than I’d initially guessed, given the size of the early fields in this series, but it’s still far and away the biggest game of the series. With more than 850 entries across all the starting days so far, the prize pool is just shy of $1.75 million in total, with the expectation of more coming before entries close.
For this prize pool to cap $2 million, they’d need to get 531 entries today, which seems a bit out of reach at this point, but this is already the fifth biggest prize pool ever amassed here at Deerfoot Inn & Casino, and there’s every chance it will push into position #4 well before entries close.
Today’s flight only needs 427 entries to push the prize pool higher than the January 2022 Main Event, which is currently the 4th biggest pool in the series with $1.786 million in prizes. Hitting 427 for today would put this game at $1,787,600 to take over 4th spot.
3rd spot is a bit more of a stretch, as they need to get $2.077 million to beat this year’s January Main. For this game to beat that number, we’d need to see 569 for 1c, and that seems unlikely given the current numbers.
