When the 1st place prize for Colossus was announced there were a few voices which were critical of the numbers involved. The 3rd and 4th largest field at the WSOP in terms of entrees are the 2014 $1,500 Millionaire Maker and the 2014 WSOP $1,500 Monster Stack.Ĭolossus: The largest field for a poker tournament Also, the number of entries is not necessarily the same as the number of participants as a result even if the number of individual players in the 'Colossus' is thought to have exceeded those figures. While the 1st prize of Colossus won't get close to that figure, it will still represent a colossal return on it's $565 buy in. The key difference aside from the buy in, is that while the Main Event is a freezeout $10,0000 event, the Colossus allows for re entries.

The Main Event has always been the jewel in the WSOP crown, and in it's record breaking year of 2006 it drew 8,773 runners, who each paid $10,000 to buy in, leading to a $12 million 1st prize that year. How does the Colossus Rank Amongst WSOP's largest events?Īs a new important event on the calendar, it is useful to look at how Colossus compares to other big WSOP events. Almost 1,000 dealers will be rotating 4,480 decks of playing cards, and when the final hand is won, the victor will walk away with over $638,000. Money will be paid to 2,241 players, with the minimum payout being $1,096. This is one of the largest that will be seen at the WSOP each year, and will represent a life changing amount of money for many of those that reach the final table, and all for the small entry fee of $565.

With 5 starting days and the option to re-enter 3 further times, the prize pool stands at $11,187,000. With the final number of registries for the event now verified at 22,374 it has accomplished that, becoming the largest field for a live tournament in poker history. The Colossus is clearly another one of those tournaments which sets out to be something special. The greatest of which was perhaps the 'Big One For One Drop' with it's $1 million buy in, but more recently the 'Dealer's Choice' has generated a lot of interest, as has the upcoming event which is played mostly online.
