GGPoker decided to make a $25k event a $50m guarantee, which I thought was foolish. Were they really going to get 2000 people to fly to Bahamas to plunk down $25k?

Doubtful, right?

Well, they didn't. Not sure if they can buy in directly on Day 2 (it's called the "WSOP Paradise Super Main Event"), but as of right now, they've concluded days 1a-1d, and only 1124 entries came to pass.

Uh oh!

That leaves GG currently on the hook for $21.9m.

If you want a good laugh, here is Vanessa Selbst taking a bad beat to get knocked out, almost berating the dude, and then choking it back. That's progress, I guess? She is known to be one of the worst sports in poker -- basically a lesbian Phil Hellmuth.
