tourney payout question

[Mike]

Stupid question...when people place in the money for these large WPT or
WSOP tourneys, are they paid in cash, or a check from the casino? Do they
have to walk around with $25,000+ in cash?

I am sure Julian decision to take cash was based on the fact that he is from
England.
I deal with some people in Europe and they all want cash vs checks or any US
paper trail for that matter. I beleive the exchange is rather large...do not
know this as fact. Also cash gives them buy in dollars without paying
reverse exchange for US tournaments.
