BODOG - WSOP "giveaway"

[philossify]

Not sure if this has been posted previously .....



Entry for these is only 5 points (equivalent to 5cents?) and looks good value - 322 in todays one at 2:00 pm (0900 est) - so if (like me) you have a few points on bodog to get rid of and the time to spare then go fer it .

[later] came 24th so a lot of the future value has ended for me as I've qualified for June 7th - effectively a $5 value on the 7th.

Value Calculations:

Bodog WSOP
Prizes
Final - $12,000 + ( $270 x 4 ) + ( $109 x 5 ) = $13,625
$13625 / 3100 entries = $4.39

Qualifiers
Prizes
25 x $4.39 = $109.75
25 x $1.50 = $37.50
1 x $29 = $29
Total = $176.25 / 1000 (estimated) players = $0.17
