Endorsement Value of Winning the WSOP
Written by Matt W | Monday, June 26th, 2006
Everyone knows that when you win the WSOP main event you win an ungodly amount of prize money. Last year Hachem won $7.5 mill before taxes. The real question is how much these guys make in endorsements after they win. Well I guess you have to be a champ to know right? In a post over at twoplustwo forums Greg Raymer said you could make anywhere from half mill to a full mill per year depending on what type of person you are and negotiating abilities.
Now these words are coming from Greg Raymer. Not to say Greg isn’t a great player but he isn’t exactly a big draw in marketing campaigns. If you are a hot young chic who wins the WSOP you could be damn sure her endorsements deals are going to skyrocket over $1 million. Needless to say Greg’s numbers could be a little off.
