So for a given top pro they are still staring at a 1/1000 chance of winning. Tournies typically pay out the top 10% of finishers, so even making the money would only be even money.

Harrington said something like this at one of the final tables of the WSOP. "My chances are 1/9, I think I am more experianced then the rest so add a few points, that puts me 4/9"
Or something like that its been awhile since I watched that episode lol.
As for fossilman and Moneymaker well I would have to say they both played good games there year but what have they done since? They might take $$ off of grandma at the $1/$2 tables but you never hear about them. last I saw them was a Europe game and they both busted fast.
One Tourney should never make someone that kind of champ, player of the year would be something alot more important if they started treating it different in the poker world.
