Whenever I read poker articles by non-poker writers it always makes me cringe. Kind of like when non-tech writers write articles about the tech industry. Not exactly, "the internet is a series of tube" cringe worthy, but just annoying stuff. 1. The WSOP is a series of events. He is playing in one event, not the actual World Series of Poker. 2. $1000, while a lot to most people, is the cheapest event you can buy into at the WSOP. There is a $1 million buy-in (for charity) and a $50K Player's Championship and the Main Event which is a $10K buy-in. 3. It's not a 3 million dollar pot, it's a 3 million dollar prize pool. 4. Being in place X is completely irrelevant when talking about "how much he would win in his current spot" Also where's Ian Chan's results page? Or is this going to be his first live tournament cash?
