10 million reasons to qualify for the World Series of Poker

November 12, 2009 |

Aided by the growth in online poker playing, poker’s monumental surge in popularity shows no sign of decline. The projected first prize of this year’s World Series of Poker is $10,000,000, by far the largest payday in gaming or sports of any kind.

Joseph Hatchem, last year’s winner collected $7.5 million. Tournament directors are confident this year will attract even more players, hence the pay increase.
