No way under paid. They put thier time and effort and dedication to the game and practice into chess and only get 100,000$ for winning the whole thing i think a more reasonable price would be around 5 Million
It's chess who watches it and where do they get the money at there is not a large ticket sell to get the money.
I can relate with you there. No one would really come and watch and there isn't that many people that play the could raise very much money.
No, i don't because it is one of the biggest. Also many people enjoy playing chess, so why not win money for playing? Some people consider chess a sport. Football, Soccer, Basketball, Baseball, and Etc. get paid, so why not chess players?
