He entered as an amateur since he wasn't one of the 32 invites. There were 1024 players in that part of the tourney and hes already won a lot of matches to get to the top 32 so I wouldn't say it is exactly 'easy money'.

The brackets and matches have been posted for the amateur finals round. There are some rules we want to point out for these matches to the players still in the event. You must join the battle.net channel "Tactic3d" 15 minutes prior to 8pm CST, as well as check in on the tactic website for the match. There is to be no streaming or observers in any of the matches for the event unless an official tactic3d steamer or official. Also note that since multiple matches will be played in a row you must play your match AT 8pm CENTRAL time. If you have any questions please contact support.

Going to root (rUt?

) for Idra, Spanishiwa and Liquid'Tyler for top-3. Gogogo guys! (Oh, and go SeleCT too!)

Looks like a really nice tournament, hoping for some hitherto, to me, unknown players surprising and kicking out some epic games..

Lol I just bought this exact headset, I received it today.

Btw I bought it because this company doesnt make much advertisement, so I figured I would not have to pay a big extra charge just for the brand, as with Steelseries or Sennheiser.

Upon seeing this ad, I guess I have to give it back.

Nah just kidding, seems to be good quality for the price.

I was disappointed in the lack of punctuality in the tournament. I think there were at least a third of the players in the whole tournament who didn't show up resulting in byes. I got unlucky and got matched with a grand master player in the second round

It's hard to believe that if one of the amateur finalists had allowed me to reschedule the match with him, and had beaten him, I would be in the running.

Very crazy! I'm sure this will end up being a great tournament!
