Never watched poker at all. Go to where? If he wants to win, 377 players infront of him. If he wants to get to the next money stage/place, less than 20 players. He is already in the moneys, which would earn him around 31k right now.
He's actually chip stacked like 280/377 or so
But yeah.... below chip average but he does still have about 27 or so BB so he has a bit of room to work with

Doesn't matter, if he wants to win he needs to win all of the players basically. You can't just cash out here whenever you want, unless you ship the chips and lose. But maybe i understood your point wrong.

Duh? Anyone who follows poker know the tournament structure.
I'm just saying his chip stack is around #280 out of the 377 people left.

How does the format work in terms of players eliminated and payout? Is the placement determined in chronological order in terms of time eliminated, by place at table, or by number of rounds?

More or less chronological order. The one exception is hand-by-hand play, which only happens at a couple of poitns in the tournament.

Does Kiwi have a twitter? Would like to follow day 5 progress while i'm at work.
Payout is chronological. I think only exception is Hand by hand play. For example, if two people had busted on the bubble, the person with the smaller stack would have been the bubble boy and the bigger stack would have been ITM.
WSOP ME is on my bucket list. I have come so close to winning satellites in previous years. Gogogogo Kiwi

We won't see Kiwikaki on the featured tables tonight, unless there is change of plans.
1st and 2nd tables are already decided. Those are Negreanu's table and Chipleader Manoj Viswanathan's table.

They do hand to hand when they get to major break points in the payouts, and once the payout changes with every elimination they continue hand to hand for the rest of the tournament (I think)

If players get eliminated isn't there a chance he could be moved there? Maybe not a big one but still.

I'm not actually sure about the ruling on this, but yesterday when one player got busted - he got replaced almost instantly.

When 8 free spaces open up in the room, a table with 8 players gets broken down and redistributed to fill those spots, so that all tables remain as full as they can. But it'd be a pretty slim sight for that to happen.
Any Vegas residents want to come with me to hit up the Rio and make cheerfuls?
