A min-cash is worth $2,923 this weekend, and players who make the final three tables will earn paydays of at least four figures. The five-figure payouts begin with the fourth-place finisher, and there's a huge top prize of $348,269 reserved for the winner. The eventual champion will also collected the diamond-studded Main Event ring and an automatic entry into the season-ending WSOP Global Casino Championship.
