Hesp's hendonmob shows how ridiculous the Global Poker Index is.

Ten wins in the Sunday rebuy at Naps in Hull is equal to coming fourth in the biggest tournament of the year.

   WSOP   final table  Chips........3 left


1   Scott Blumstein   226,450,000
2   Dan Ott               88,375,000
3   Benjamin Pollak   45,850,000

 33-1 sweat for some with Ott....game on

To give that some context, blinds are 1,000,000-2,000,000 with a 300,000 Running Ante.

Bit like a level one at DTD.


made me lol

Most of the bets placed so far seem more like hopeful punts rather than value spots

A random & probably junior journo at Poker Strategy published a really interesting piece this morning.

The numbers below are what the Finalists won, & how much they were left with after tax. So, for example, the winner "won" $8.15 milly, but after tax he will be left with $4.31 milly.





1st Scott Blumstein $8,150,000       $4,310,571
2nd Dan Ott $4,700,000                 $2,600,194
3rd Benjamin Pollak $3,500,000      $3,500,000
4th John Hesp  $2,600,000            $2,600,000
5th Antoine Saout  $2,000,000       $2,000,000
6th Bryan Piccioli $1,675,000         $791,023
7th Damian Salas $1,425,000         $997,500
8th Jack Sinclair $1,200,000         $1,200,000
9th Ben Lamb $1,000,000             $591,517

As a matter of interest, how does that ^^^^ affect the staking market?

If, say, an American purchased a 10% stake in the winner, how much would he get back? (Assume the buyer lived in the same State & was subject to the same tax regime).

And how does this affect the mark up? If (say) Blumstein sold at 1.2%, what rate is that after allowing for the tax "lost"?
