That was $8m in CHIPS. Those chips are worth about $49.50.

The winner has a lot more than 8m chips at the end usually since everyone starts with 10000 chips and it's last man standing, and I think first place gets 20% of the sum of buyins.

Actually everyone started this year's main event with 30000 in chips, even though the buy-in was still $10K.

And Joe Cada took home $8 million, not $49.50. I don't know WTF Felix is talking about. I believe there was somewhere in the neighborhood of 200 million chips in play.
