The Five Star is really the pro's pros tourney. On-site satellites fill the field with hopefuls, but this is really a redistribution of wealth plan among the tournament regulars, top cash players, and grinders hoping to catch lightning in a bottle.

I'll be checking into the final event over the weekend.
