    I couldn't help but notice all the overlays on the big tournies on stars today, so, being half bored, I figured I'd add a few of them up and see how much they ended up paying out to honor their guarantess.

    Sunday Warm-Up $750,000 - ($215 x 3328) = $34,480
    Sunday 500 $500,000 - ($530 x 900) = $23,000

    Second Chance $300,000 - ($215 x 1235) = $34,475

    200$ Rebuy $250,000 - ($215 x 299) - ($200 x 679) = $49,915
    ___________
    $141,870

    Decent chunk of change to be paying out. Yes, I'm sure they can afford it. Still a pretty penny, though.

    Looks like it from the lobby, but once you include the rake they actually made a profit on the million.

    215$ x 7133 = $1,533,595 they hauled in, for a profit of $33,595

    these guarantees are realtively new too, i think they've had overlays in the warmup everytime since it was upped.
