@AriEngelPoker @Protentialmn @DarrenRabbi Also its 965+135 so thats where 175k comes from, not 145k (sounds like you were doing a 1000+100) which would be incredibly low rake in today's economy.

@AriEngelPoker @Protentialmn @DarrenRabbi This. Its how much money is being added is the overlay. If no gtd, this would have been 825k pp. Not 950k. So 175k overlay.

Might be some big misses this summer if even Wynn is struggling with an 1100 start of series. This had a true overlay by $60k.

@dklappin @pablomariz777 @pokercircuit_io @ryandansiepoker @FPL_Fraudulence Same thing youre putting in $1000 in the pot (buyin) and $xx is taken out

@dimeat @pablomariz777 @pokercircuit_io @ryandansiepoker @FPL_Fraudulence Apples and oranges. Rake is taken out of a pot. Reg fee is added on to the amount going into prizepool. That’s why we use different words.

Woah, that 1st WSOP event is a $456.50+$93.50! A 20.5% reg fee for a 30 minute clock monkey event is wild. Add to that, all the max late reggers (10bbs with 65% of the field gone) sniping a 25+% ICM-bump. Recs in from start coz they actually wanna play poker are getting wrecked!

@AnotherRadProd @e5sk1m0 @dklappin ^^^

@e5sk1m0 @dimeat @dklappin 10/110=9.09%

@pablomariz777 @pokercircuit_io @ryandansiepoker @FPL_Fraudulence @dklappin

@pablomariz777 @pokercircuit_io @ryandansiepoker @FPL_Fraudulence @dklappin If something was 100 buyin and 200 rake, that'd be 67% rake. Not 200% rake

@kwansfull The last line is the key part. People aren't necessary responsible. This is poker space but look at CC debt as a whole and its enormous. Theres people that can't help but spend on credit.

Looks like half of people would not change behavior due to cc fees at WSOP this year. For the other half, what’s the impact overall? 2-6% reduction in entries per event? We will see. The bigger thing that stands out though is 21% of people not using a cc. This is bananas. You should not have a cc without a rewards program in this day and age, so you should put literally every possible purchase on a cc given the vendor is not surcharging you. Ofc it shouldn’t need to be said: never spend more than you can cover, but that’s so basic it shouldn’t need to be said. So if you were going to spend 10k in buyins and had saved $10k in your bank account, you should have reaped rewards on that $10k in buyins which you already had the money for anyway. Not to mention many ccs now give you low interest pay over time plans, which lets you arb that low interest rate with your investments like the stock market. Don’t listen to people who say all debt is bad! If you are smart and responsible, leveraging debt is how you become wealthy!

@Donnie_Peters @RichTRyan Daily pods? 🙏

First pod of WSOP SZN shipped to producer @RichTRyan. A bit rusty, but we'll get there. It's gonna be a great summer. 🫡

@mjbloech @kwansfull So could do 1.5% fees with luxon instead of 2%? For some arb with cc rewards

@kwansfull This is from the app. 1.5% for credit card. Also can hook it up to crypto.

Can someone explain the benefits of Luxon over other WSOP deposit methods for Americans?

@jeffplatt @kwansfull @Kevmath @tjreidpoker I'll use my CC to get american status but then after that change to cash or debit as I'm eating some of the cost just to try to accrue some points. Or I change to a 2% and ill make a 60 cents on a 1500 buyin 😆

We “ate” a huge amount of $$ last year. This year we are still eating some cost to not charge 3%. I don’t see how it’s an absolute that attendance increases in such a drastic manner with 0% CC fees vs 2% CC fee to account for paying for 100% of CC fees. But with that said, still want to help the players!

Can someone raise the point with WSOP leadership that players using cc’s would absolutely increase entires by > 2%?? Just eat the cost! @Kevmath @tjreidpoker @jeffplatt

@Kevmath So 10am bracelet overflow will be relegated to Normandy/Provence instead of "next door" in event center due to deepstacks? Seems they have more tables in Event Center than last year's Normandy/Provence so surely there'll be extra tables anyway.

Some additional notes about the WSOP Floor Plan 10am starts - Horseshoe Grand Ballroom 12pm/2pm/Restarts - Paris Daily Deepstacks/Satellites - Horseshoe Event Center Normandie/Provence (located on the 2nd/3rd floors, take the escalators at the Horseshoe Poker Room) - Overflow The Yellow section in Paris is the Champagne Ballroom, the former registration location. Next door to Champagne is the Versailles Ballroom, where you’ll find Registration/Verification/Safe Deposit Boxes/WSOP LIVE app Support/Payouts and other services. The GGPoker Platinum Lounge has been moved to a TBA location.

@slickdickson @pokerstakecom @25kfantasy Only WSOP? Not playing at other venues?

Preliminary 2026 WSOP Schedule. Mostly 1500's with a few 10k's sprinkled in. Selling action to nearly all events so reach out if interested or check @pokerstakecom when I'm up and running there. @25kfantasy in case someone needs a flyer See all you degens in 10 short days!

@tjreidpoker @Elanit @KevmathVegas I'm up to 7! 😄

@Elanit @KevmathVegas Send me an email. Tj.reid@wsop.com

Hi @KevmathVegas is there a way to combine multiple player profiles? I think I’m up to five now.

@basebaldy @AllenKessler @CaesarsPokerLV @A_Rich_VERIFIED @Kevmath Low rake relatively, good 1 day structures and money added?! (Does caesars take a promo drop from the cash games?)

@AllenKessler @CaesarsPokerLV @A_Rich_VERIFIED @Kevmath That’s amazing 👏

The next Chainsaw Mixed Series of Poker starts Friday May 8 @CaesarsPokerLV with our first ever $600 Double Board Bomb Pot event. Custom Trophies for every event! 💰 $10,000 added Player of the Series Package🔥 @A_Rich_VERIFIED @Kevmath

@ShaunTobikosan @BronsonT518 @WynnPoker The multi-flights are actually worst on some events...I don't know if mistake or omission. Some of the 1100s/1600s multi-flights have the 2500BB and 25K BB level skipped compared to last year.

@BronsonT518 @WynnPoker You can look at the 2025 and bet they did nothing to make better structures.

The wait is over! The Wynn Summer Classic returns on May 20th with more than $40,000,000 in Guarantees! Highlighted Events: $10K NLH $10M • 6/21-27 $3.5K NLH $5M • 6/11-16 $2.2K NLH Mystery $3M • 6/15-18 Full Schedule: cdn.wynnresorts.com/image/upload/v…

@jeffplatt @Kevmath @210Mattsa Yeah I didn't get a chance to take a screenshot of the actual purchase since I thought there'd be another screen with fees (I'm gonna play this event anyway). It looked like @210Mattsa screenshot but $1500 instead

@dimeat @Kevmath @210Mattsa Just to be clear, $1500 showed up when you actually purchased?

Overnight, registration became available in the WSOP LIVE app Options available: Luxon Pay (no fee) ACH (no fee) Debit card (no fee) Credit card (Visa, MasterCard, American Express) (2% fee) PayPal (2% fee) Paris Tournament Account

@Kevmath @210Mattsa @jeffplatt Agreed, I had to go "purchase history" to see it after the fact. But it did not show me that before I purchased

@210Mattsa @jeffplatt And I agree that on the screen you show, there should be a mention of any additional fees.

@Kevmath Looks like these structure sheets were rescanned instead of the electronic pdf since they look "faded"

That’s the first I’ve seen 30-minute breaks in the Main Event. Looks like they’ve updated the structure sheet very recently. Assume it was done as a way to end each day sooner?

@tjreidpoker @WSOP No elgin or hammond stops?

Most second half @WSOP Circuit stops have been added to the website. There will be some more added, and schedules will be added to the site and the app as they become available. WSOP Tournament Schedule | Upcoming WSOP Events | WSOP.com share.google/TCbOHZedfsgXRE… @pokerorg @Kevmath
