The first big Korean Starcraft 2 tournament

lol rekrul wouldn't be able to make the 64... better for him to just play poker.

Playings tarcraft solely for money is a huge waste of time. Wat does second get? Third? Etc. It only becomes worth the time for the top two. Prize pool would need to have a couple hundred thousand dollars more to be worthwhile.

500k$ is pretty decent for a freeroll of a field of 64 players imo

Uhhhh ya that is amazing. Anyone who plays should have played. Competition will be softer because game so new too. Didn't realize prize pool so large.

USD? rly? damn

rekrul is a hon balla

The GSL Tournament right now

total prizepool is 170K USD

1st 85K USD
2nd 25K USD
3rd 8.5K USD
4th 8,5K USD
5-8 place 3,4K USD
TOP 16 1,7K
rest of TOP64 = couple hundred bucks

Field was 2000 players and TOP 64 get in the money

500K USD$ is just what they plan to have in the future !

Chance of Rekrul to get TOP64 is 10% at best.
Chance to get rd place TOP3 is like 0,01%
Chance of Rekrul making 10K in 2-3 good days of poker = much better

Rekrul and SC2 = waste of time

For all those doubting, an American player named Torch, who not a single person on teamliquid knew, made the round of 64

If you played protoss and had a couple of creative timing pushes you could perform with efficiency, I can see someone making top 64 fairly easily

Oh, and if you are terran, GG tournament

Money won divided by hours practiced. I bet 95% of the field will have an hourly of <$5
