The above statement makes it sound like whoever finishes the highest at the end of the online portion will get seat 5 protege. But then when you click the link to the poker classic it says whoever finishes the highest regardless of finishing in the top 45. So which is it?Highest person at the end of online play?Or the last man standing from FCP? No matter what?DOS

It's the top eligible FCP player at the end of the online portion whether that person is in the top 45 or not.Since the live portion of the Poker Classic is only one week before the live Protege Final we wouldn't be able to wait for the results from Barcelona to know who is coming to Bahamas.

is this changed now with the changes to US legislation and the ONGAME stance?

Hi Clint, the Protege Seat 2 will still be won by the highest FCP player in the Poker Classic who is eligible for the Protege Promotion.

Congratulations to berg55280 who not only is going to Spain for the Poker Classic final but also as the top player from FCP in the online portion of the event has won Seat 2 at the Protege Final table at the Atlantis Resort in Bahamas.
