14 qualifiers (No cash)
2 qualifiers (10K each)
1 final (40k)
So 60,000$ CP, not bad, depending of the amount of games played indeed. But please, don't start counting the travel flights and hotels rooms in a cashprize, orelse ESWC would have a cashprize of what, 1,000,000$ ? come on. :)
I regret my team can't played last year. It would be so much fun
PES 09 ftw!
but i think there will be cs1.6 and wc3 again ... and maybe ql or q3
