    No only 20% which goes to a charity. It's on their website. For the time being it's the only way they're allowed to have high buy-in tournies.

    snow, they are projecting a 500 k prize pool w/ 210 entrants (500k after charity)...so I'm sure your edge is > than the 20%, plus you can probably write off the 15% of that which goes to charity.

    You will be W 9 on any winnings!

    No such thing as a player writing off for charity (unless you voluntarily give your prize money to charity) like Phil Laak did recently. The t Casino who doesnt pay taxes any way and the Charity get the cash 20% not the players.
